Wheels & tires for 2006 Explorer

Looking at the pro comp steel wheels but not sure if the off set will work. I want to try to fit 285/75/16 (I wanted 17s but can’t find any). It’s lifted with spacers in the front and
rear.

What off set is everyone running with a similar set up?

I did a bit of searching around and found that most are running no larger than 265s on the 4th gen. One person said he was running a 285x60-18, but no pics. Several people are running 285s on the 3rd gen. I'm not sure what the difference is in clearance.

I have 265 on it now and they were on before I put the lift/leveling kit on it. 285 will be tight but I think they will fit.

I’d find what the factory wheel is, and add the difference in width to the offset. You should technically only need half.
