Rim & Tire Question

I know this has been beat to death and I have used the Search. I am looking at some used rims that are 18x9 with 0 offset ( I believe its 0 on the inside of the rim it measures 5"), If I put 33's on will I have a rubbing problem. or could I even getaway with 35's

I have an 04 2500 quad Cab I will be installing a 2" leveling kit as well.

Any help would be great.

0 offset means the rim is centered on the bolting surface. The factory wheel is a 7" and has a 43mm positive offset (or is it 48mm?) Anyway, a 9" rim with 0 offset will be out a little more from the truck, but REALLY stick out farther because it is two inches wider. You will contact when you turn methinks.

I had a great offset calculator site, but lost it. Try this one:

I just put the same size rim and tire 18x9 with 5" BS and 33 Toyo MT's while putting on my 3" Thuren suspension and have no rubbing. They do stick out a little, but I like they way it looks.
