Final advice needed

The offset would be 0 vs stock 38, i.e. your wheels will be out 1.5". I'd don't go with it. I'd look for the same wheels with back spacing no less than 5.5 (http://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html).
If I correctly understand the term, the front wheels are hub centric, the hub diameter is 100 mm (it is possible to install wheels designed for bigger diameter, but not smaller). And there's nothing wrong to install hub centric wheels on the rear (I believe they should be different by the hub cup size, but check if the hub cups are supplied at all).

I have had my wheels on for over 5 years now and they have a "0" offset, and there are a few things to keep in mind when straying from factory....

uncle_asa is right, be careful with the offset. I am probably the "King of VehiCROSS.INFO Wheel Well Trimming" since I have done it so much on mine. Of course, I have 18x8.5 wheels with fat 285/60s which leaves the wheel well and tire tight with space, but even with your size, it is something you should keep in mind when going for your tire size. The offset pushes the wheel out of the well more meaning turns are more likely to cause fender rub. Heck, I just put new tires on that are the same size as my old ones, and I find myself trimming again.

And with a different offset than factory, vehicle weight is changed minutely, so be sure to get an alignment. Offset difference can also wear your bearings faster.

So essentially if I was and I am wanting to get a 16'' rim, what would be the exact or possible dimensions???


16x __ or __ or __

6-5.5

Offset __ or __ or __ or __

Backspacing __ or __ or __

Hub centric or not or does it completely matter?

I am glad I did not get those yet. I was about to put my order in online without even calling last night becuase they were closed. I want to get a 245/75-16 tire. Any suggestions on that. I am currently running 265 and think I want a narrower tire with more sidewall.

Thanks for any help....

The stock wheels for Isuzu are 15", 16", and 18", 7J (rim width), 6x5.5, ET+38 (offset), back spacing (5.5), D100 (center bore).
I believe for the 245/75 the best would be 7J, ET+25 through ET+38 or 7.5J ET+20 through ET+32. See picture to convert ET to backspacing:

Normally, if you go with wider tires you should end with wider rims and lower offset (f.e. for 265 tires it would be best 7.5J or 8J and ET=38-(265-245)/2=28).
The center bore should be not less, but common 108-110 are OK (you hardly find 100 exactly, but beware of the wheels with D78 - they will not fit!).

I'm personally running 245/70R16 on 7J ET+20 and I wish the bigger offset since my car become dirty a bit quickly.

Wow I am lost. Why cant it just be easier?

Easiest way is to find a good shop that will go out of its way to sell you what you want and carries what you want and have them mount up several tire/wheel combos and test fit them! Then you know if they will fit.

I dont have any nearby shops that have 6-bolt rims in stock for text fitting....I live in Southern Indiana and there are not many shops. There is a pep boys (the largest around my area as far as automotive shops are concerned,) but they only display tuner racing rims 4&5 bolt rims and only about 7 are in stock of those. Im certain I will have to purchase the rims off line. I like the rock crawler set up to the one above. Not to incredibly picky I just am looking for a set under $500.....
