Is it as simple as going with low-offset rears if you want a fat lip?

Can you post a pic of the rear, showing the width of the tires?

Lexkost love your fitment,your wheels are sitting perfect. How did you get the wheel specs so accurate? Is there any rubbing front or rear with this setup?

Depends how much fender work you'd like to put in. I'm looking into 9.5'', 10'' 15-20mm myself.
