I've searched for days. If there's a definitive thread or post someone please link it.

My truck will be about 3/4 to 3/5 when its all said and done. I'm going to go with some 10" wide 15's. They tires are cheap and its what looks good on these trucks to me.

I REALLY like the look of the wheels on this truck. The style, the depth an so on. My problem is this company no longer makes this wheel in a 10". Max they make now is 8"

So I found something similar:

But I am worried that the offset would be a little off because they're "Off Road" wheels and make them stick out of the wheels wells and rub?

Wheel specs:
15" x 10" 5x127.00 Offset: -43mm Backspace: 3.81"

Help and insight greatly appreciated. Also open to other 15x10 wheels that will fit. Thanks.

@Skid.
I’ll say solid no go if lowered. Look at the 20” wheel thread just below yours.
