The offset determines how far they stick out.....tire width is also critical for clearance when turning....

Hub bore on an H3 is 101 mm. Hub is 100 mm.
H3's are hub centric, meaning the center bore aligns the wheel versus stud centric in which the lug nuts align the wheel.
You need to match the hub bore.

just because it is designed hub centric does not mean you have to run hub centric wheels.

So if the wheels are 106mm they will work correct?

No Skeet, you don't.
You just need to have a center bore larger than 100 mm and use the right kind of lug nuts.

I wouldn't do it on my truck though. Don't want to risk snapping lugs on the trails.

You are correct sir. i can't remember if my wheels are hub centric or not. Most places give you new lug nuts or the oppurtunity to purchase the correct lug nuts
