You actually used animations! The only video to do so. I finally understand!
We're happy to help, Anthony! Thanks for watching! -Zach
By far the best video on explaining offset & backspaceing on rims
Thanks for the love, Eric! -Zach
True I love how the wheel actually comes out and in when they explain it
Been trying to explain this to a buddy for years now and I had him watch this video and he gets it now thanks for making me not crazy lol 😂
I am wheel offset challenged. Been trying to understand it and the theory behind. This has been the best explanation I have come across. Thank you!
this is the most helpful video on this subject that i've seen. the animations were extremely helpful, and the information was delivered in a simple and easy to understand manner
Best explanation yet . It makes a lot more sense with the visual.
Can easily say that this is the best video I’ve seen explaining offset. Thank you!!
Thank you so much for the kind words, Weston! We appreciate it! -Zach
Absolutely an amazing video to teach the difference between offset and backspacing and to explain offset. I was confused about offset and was finding it really challenging to shop for new wheels because of my lack of understanding offset. This video helped me understand offset and how I had the whole idea of it wrong. Thank you American Trucks!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching! -Zach
Nice video. I've been meaning to learn more about wheels and fitment and this. I didn't even have to skip thru the video to find the good information.
This is the BEST OF THE BEST explanation ever on the subject 10 ⭐️
I have been searching for a solid week to find this specific kind of explanation. Just bought an 18 Silverado crewcab and had no clue how to shop for after market wheels. Awesome video and made it super easy
The very best video I have ever seen regarding wheels sizes ... thanks a lot
I don't own a truck of any kind but the visuals and examples sure brings the point across. Nice job on the video.
Love the 3D Explanations!!! So much easier to understand, Thx.
Best explanation of this topic I have viewed so far online of dozens of videos! Great job 👏 !
Thanks for watching! We're always happy to hear our videos help! -Zach
New to the truck world and this is the best explanation and illustration yet in explaining offset and poke. This gives me a great visual of what I am looking for and how to accomplish it. Thank you guys very much.
Thanks for watching and for the kind words! We appreciate it and hope it helped out! -Zach
By far the best explanation, you saved from wrong buying online wheels, thanks!
The best explanation i ever seen on youtube. Wow!!
There are many videos explaining about offset but this video is one of the best..the illustrations are brilliant which makes the video very helpful and informative.. thumbs up 👍👍👍
Thanks for the love! We really appreciate it! -Zach
Wow excellent video! Very informative and I love the visual representation! Thank you so much!
Best video and explanation of offset I've seen... complete and easy to understand. exactly what I was looking for and needed, Thank you for posting!!
Thank *you* for watching, Dave! We appreciate it! -Zach
Finally, somebody explain very accurate .! How wheel offset works .! Good job .!
This is the single most informative video I have seen on the concept of offset. Thank you so much. I'm still running stock 275/55R20s on my 17 Silverado but am looking at trying to purchase a new wheel and tire combo so this was very helpful.
What’d you end up doing?
ive watch a lot of offset video and tried to imagine what ive learned...but because of this video...now i understand what these offset is all about thanks ...
Best explanation in TH-cam.The animation so good.
Thanks for this video. I appreciate it how you guys explained it. Thank you!
The animations and great explanation really helped a lot, thanks!
i love how you use animations! very detailed and i love the way u explain! its better to understand when you are demonstrating it and showing examples of it! hats of to you sir! thanks for the video i definitely learned something. this 9 minute video is worth watching!
Thank you for watching! -Zach
That's was a great, informative video! I appreciate the graphics incorporated for better understanding. Thank you for not making 25 minutes long too. Lol. On top of just showing what each set up did with the rubbing, I would also explain the need to move up or down in wheel size.
Desmond Perry this comment. Same. +1
Well that was the clearest explanation I’ve come across. I now definitely know the differences and what I need to look for. I just need to find out the off set of my wheels now. Thank you for the info.
Thank you for watching, Phil! We appreciate it! -Zach
This is the best video I've seen on the subject. Offset itself is easy enough to understand. This video explains WHY backspacing is important, and delivers a very clear visual explanation of the increased swing caused by reducing offset.
Thank you for watching!!!
the BEST explanation with graphics by far on TH-cam!!!
Thanks for watching!!
I know im late here, but great job on this video guys. I’m very impressed by the quality of the editing
Thank you for the feedback! We appreciate it! -Zach
Couldn't be better explained! A fantastic educational video. It made it very clear to me the options I have for wheels&tires upgrading of my 2003 Avalanche. Thank you very much.
Thanks for watching! -Zach
OMG I could not understand this for the life of me until your vid, the animations help alot with being a visual learning rathwr than just hearing it and taking it in
Hole-Y Shit. I've been searching for this information for weeeeeeks. My local 4WP was absolutely no help and even gave me (according to this video) incorrect information. I'm so glad you guys put this out there, I can't say it enough. Thank you!
You should check out custom offsets they have the gallery that will show you your truck with different fitments
Best way to understand by far better than anyone with just talk. Thx guys
For a non-technical person like me, this video helped a lot in understanding how the wheels offset works and how it affects the wheels when they turn.👍
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching! -Zach
Very clear and straightforward explanation. Thank you for the video. Thinking of going for the neutral offset. Thanks
Thanks for watching, Jamie! -Zach
Awesome video! I had an idea, but wasn't really sure how the offset worked 100%. Thanks for clearing that up!
Thanks for watching, Roger! Glad to hear it helped out! -Zach
Best video by far on this topic!
Best video explaining offset ever
Very informative, will help me in my search for summer wheels thanks.
Super informative video there, doesn’t get any clearer than that.
275/65 /20 with stock wheels and a 3 " leveling kit ,good video !
Awesome graphics showing the effect of offset on steering clearance. I didn't think about that one ... but I'm not a fan of poke anyway. Great job.
We're happy you enjoyed it! -Zach
As many times as Custom Offsets has explained this, love them but they never used an animation. Love this video thanks!
I've been researching aftermarket wheels for a month. I've watched every single f**ing video aimed at my consumer base (large arrogant german saloon owner) in an effort to understand this concept. THANK YOU CHEVROLET for publishing the best video I've seen that clearly explains, demonstrates and offers strategies about offset selection. This video really helped me out.
Stay safe & Stay Strong, Boston
I have a 98’ k1500 StepSide with a leveled front end. Took the old floorboards off and put on custom diamond plate mini boards to give it a higher profile without the lift, and put on some nice 33” Atturo Trail Blades. Love this truck, wouldn’t trade it for a new one in a million years.
Great video on explaining offset and wheel rubbing..
Thanks for watching and we're happy it helps! -Zach
Not a pickup person but the video helped me with my Tahoe in looking for OEM replica rims. I wanted to go OEM rims but needed to understand offset to begin with. Video helped with the search even if it was a different vehicle platform…Sierra, Silverado, Tahoe, Yukon at least current generations are pretty close to the same platform. This video really helped with the search and I found a set of OEM with same pattern but black.
nice video and explained well. I just got some methods with zero offset. sticks out a little further than id like but I have gotten used to it and actually like it now. Have noticed some rocks flinging up everyone and a while so Im looking into fender flares.
Best explanation on the Internet. This could have saved me so much trouble over the years lol
Thanks for the love, Brenden! -Zach
This is the best, simple, easy explanation ...eveer thanks a lot.
Thanks for watching, Omar! -Zach
Thanks for the video. Helped me make a decision on wheel size as well as the offset.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate it and we're glad to hear it helped you out! -Zach
Finally understanding the terms, great visuals!! Considering I’m working on a 2000 GMC Sierra 1500 I’m seeing a lot of theses videos are with newer trucks. How much of what is in this and other videos on this channel translate with older ones? Not sure if I just have to do a lot more googling/YouTubing ☹️ Thank you!!
Couldn’t ask for a better video
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Clear like water, great tutorial
Thanks for watching and for your comment, Will! -Zach
Such a great explanation for first time truck owners! Thanks a lot! Now I don't feel lost lol
We're happy to help, JT! Thank *you* for watching! -Zach
Good editing and explanation. Thanks keep it up!
Thanks for the love, Lesther! We definitely will! -Zach
Good Video, wish i had seen this before i got my lift and wheels, i just went with what the shop suggested. I have -44 offset on my 2011 Sierra. I would have preferred -32 as its an aggressive poke but not way out there like my current setup.
Thank just bought a 2018 Silverado crew cab . Can’t wait to get wheels 🔥👌
Congrats on the new-to-you truck! Thanks for watching and hit us up when you want some new wheels! -Zach
Excellent video, Travis.
Thanks for watching!
Wow, what a great video, this is quality planning
Thanks for the kind words! We appreciate it! -Zach
AWESOME VIDEO. CLEAR AND SUCCINCT. STRAIGHT FIRE🔥

Thanks for watching! -Zach
I like the ones with the most poke💜💜
Get 24 inch by 12 wheels with 38 by 12 tires you’ll have super poke buy you’ll need to lift ur truck at least 6 inches
Chicks! I LOVE the ones who like lots of Poke! Great to be a guy! Hope you get as much poke as you can stuff under those nicely flared fenders of yours!
Awesome video! Really helped me in choosing my wheel set up. I have one question. What brand are the running boards on their truck.
Great explanation video great job
Great video made off-set easy to understand. Thank U
Thanks for watching, Michael! We appreciate it! -Zach
Thank you!! i just became a professinal by watching your video!
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Nice video. I could be wrong but I thing not mentioned, depending on the wheel width the tire will “poke” more or less. Your first wheel was 9 inches wide w/ 20 et. The other two wheels were 8.5 inches wide. So a 20 et on a 9 inch wide wheel will poke out further than a 8.5 inch with the same offset. Thanks
Very helpful video and very detailed
Perfect explanation!
Very good explanation!!!
Deffinantly a well designed video. Thanks! I have got a 2009 silverado with 35s about 1.5 inches of poke on a 6 inch lift and i still needed too do some cutting and fixing the wheel well too avoid rubbing
devon lapierre sweet build man. Do you think a 09 silverado with similar poke and a leveling kit on 33’s would rub?
Great presentation
Thank you for ur video, I'm about to get a set of wheels for my truck and I didn't know about off set, thank you
Thank you for watching! -Zach
Travis you forget to mention what are the bad effects of negative offset into the steering and front tire performance
Just bought 20x12 -44 RBP black with milled, will be installing Atturo 33x12.5r20 tires, and i cant wait !
Awesome! Hope they look great on the truck! -Zach
Heard those tires are bad and too loud. Go with toyo at2.
Adolfo 2017 1500 silverado stock suspension 20x10 with 285/50R20 . Great video
What's your offset
outstanding video
Great video brother!!!
Thanks for watching! -Zach
2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 3.5 lift with Stock Wheels 17 on 295/70 R17 Coopers STT Pro did a little trim,, love at lift with the stock look
Such helpful content...thank you!
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Thanks for this massive explanation
We're happy it helped out! -Zach
I used to have offsets on my 13 sierra ext cab and for anyone that wants to do this keep in mind big tires and offsets are murder on suspension parts also too they do drop the mileage of your truck as well because of increased (wider) stance it looks cool but it's kinda pointless unless your mudding every day or very often I'd save your money for other things
I’m running a 5 inch rough country lift on 17x8.5 with 265/70/r17s should I go 315/70/r17s ? Or will that affect my truck
Very informative video.
I have a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Z71 4x4 crew cab. The stock tires on it were the 265’s and the truck looked terrible with that constant stink bug look due to the front being about 2” lower than the rear of the truck.
A week and a half ago I put a leveling kit on my truck. I also added to my trucks set up and bought 4, 18”x9” Fuel “Assault” wheels and had mounted onto them 4, BF Goodrich All Terrain TKO-2 tires that were 285’s, as opposed to the stock 265’s. I have to give props to the place that I went to. The owner was extremely knowledgeable and ordered the wheels that had the proper offset so nothing would rub when the tires would turn either way or direction. I forget what the specific offset was that he ordered but I told him that I like a wider stance on the truck and to have the wheels and tires stick out just a little bit as opposed to the stock look. The shop owner educated me on Chevy Silverado trucks and told me that they are only 1 of a handful of trucks that you can’t go to far out or have to great of a negative offset without having the wheels and tires rub. The owner called around and was able to find me the exact wheels and tires that would not rub, even if the tires were turned to full steering lock in any direction. The shop owner ended up being spot on too, because nothing rubs in inside the wheel wells whenever I turn my tires in either direction. Including at full lock on both sides. The shop owner was also able to get the tires to stick out just a hair bit over stock. So with the wheels that he ordered in for me, they either had a smaller positive offset number over the stock offset, which I had assumed was set at 0 degrees offset, but not anywhere near a high positive number offset like this video just informed me.
After the 285’s wear out I may put 33’s on the truck instead to see how well I like them as opposed to the 285’s. I know that the 33’s, are just a fraction of an inch taller than the 285’s size tire. I think by a 1/2” maybe? So if I can get away with the 33’s on my truck and still have no tire rubbing in either direction to include the tires being at full lock in either direction, then that is what I will keep on the truck from then on out. I had always been told that 285’s and 33’s, were both the same identical tire in every manner but the tire shop owner clued me in that they were not, but are all very close in size in every area.
With the truck sitting approximately 2” higher in the back from the bigger tires and 4” in the front with a combination of the 2” leveling kit and approximate 2” in bigger tires, the truck looks so much better now. Another positive is that my mpg has not changed one bit since adding the bigger tires and lift kit and my speedometer is only 1 mph off at speeds of 40 mph or greater. If I had the ability to do so, I would share before and after pics of my truck on here but because it’s TH-cam, I can’t.
Great explanation of offsets, thanks! I'm currently running 275/55r BFG's AT's on Factory 20's, on my 2014. I have the smaller suspension lift and could easily stick 33's on it. But, it rides nice and looks good as it sits, and I still have plenty of clearance for snow and mud. Which are the two biggest issues here in the upper Midwest. :-)
Nice video!! On 2023 Sierra 2500 HD SLT Diesel. I am running a 20x10 -19 Hostel Lunatic and with just a leveling kit in front wrapped with 285/65 20 Good Year Ultra-terrain AT. Not a very aggressive poke but it looks really nice.
Nice explaination
Excellent Explanation!
Thank you for the love, Andrey! -Zach
Because of this video my 2015 Chevy Silverado is gonna run a 7in Rough Country lift on 35 Nitto Mud Grapplers on Fuel Mavericks 20x12 with a -44 offset. Talk about aggressive:)
Bang on explanation
Thanks for watching!! -Zach
Y’all should do this comparison for all truck manufacturers. No one else does videos like this.
Thank you. Needed this video. I have a '18 2500HD with 17" wheels. 2 questions. 1) Can you go so far that it will ultimately have an impact on wheel bearings and other parts? Would zero be optimal? 2) what would be pros and cons for going to 20s.
Great information thanks
Well done! 👏🏽👏🏽
