Default What Rims for 2011 JCG

Hi There,

So from other forums I have been told that the factory rims have a 56.4mm offset yielding about 6.7" backspace, I haven't found anything official. I want to keep as close to stock as possible so suspension and balance of the truck don't go out of kilt.

I am after another off-road set for my 2011 JGC to replace the 20" roadies, so went into a Mickey Thompson dealer who told me that they have nothing in Australia of his range that will suit that offset, he said the best they have is something with 30mm offset.

What does offset mean and how do I find 18" rims that fit? The dealer here said they would sell me the factory 18" rims for 900 each which seems very steep! I will go to other dealers this week and see what else I can find out.

any advice would be appreciated.
