I believe that the offset depends on tire size. I have 16x7 rims with 265 75 16 Lt's on my 76 F250 2wd and they're just a standard replacement for the old split rims. I don't have any problems with tire rub at all. So unless you plan on using some radical tires I think the standard offset should be fine.

You should be fine then. No problems as those are the stock tire size I think

Like I said Unless you special order the rims they're going to be stock spec rims and with that tire size you shouldn't have any problems at all
