Newbie question about drop

[Cthmpsn1]

Hey I've actually been following the forum for about 3 months figured I'd actually sign up lol. Anyways kinda having hard time making the final decision on drop set up between the 2/3 or 3/5 I have a 2003 Yukon xl Denali . I plan on putting 26x10 295/30/26 . I'm just not 100% sure if I need +13 or +25. I've seen some have similar setup any info or opinions on what would be best would be great.

I'm not understanding what the +13 or +25 is.

I'm not understanding what the +13 or +25 is.

offset.

+12 is ~6" backspacing on a 10" wheel and +25 is 6.5" backspacing on a 10" wide wheel

positive backspacing puts the outside lip closer to the vehicle centerline and negative puts the outside lip further away from the vehicle centerline.

I would suggest a wheel with a +30 or more offset if possible if not definitely go with the +25 offset. 3/5 will require so work to keep them from rubbing but is easily done. 2/3 will only require some minor trimming

Definitely look for something +30 or better. I have a 2/3 drop with 26s +30 on 305/30/26 tires and get some rubbing. I could fix it but haven't gotten around to it with a 2 month old.
