Look in any of my pics in the links in my signature. My wheels are 17x9 with 35's.

That will work. I don't about the offset but my 17x8 with 4.25" backspacing has -6 offset. The same wheel in 17x9 and same backspacing has -19 offset. Hope that helps.
Offtrac, can I get a few more pictures of your truck with the 35"s? I want to see how far the tire sticks out of the wheel well with no spacer if I go with that same backspacing and rim and tire size.
Also, do you have any MT sound INSIDE the cabin with the windows up?
Here's the best picture I have of how far they stick out. I'll try to get some more later. Keep in mind that I do have a 1.5" spacer on the rear.
There is definitely more cabin noise than my all terrains had, but it's not that loud. It completely drowns out with the radio at only about 1/4 of the way up. Now, with the rear window down, there's definitely a howl.
You don't need a spacer. I just wanted to cut less plastic and push the wheels out more even with the front. Look closely at yours. The front hubs are further out than the rear. The rear tires tuck in a good bit in the rear.
Good luck man, that whole BS and Offset biz was really stressful when I was looking. Gotta say I really like the all black look, and those headlights look sick with it all. Love the radio too, I want to get something like that.
On a 12.5" tire, it'd probably be pretty close in terms of the wheel wells. Lucky for you, you already have spacers. Just mount them without and if you think they need a little bump out on the rear, put them on and see what the difference is.
