Here is a picture of an H3 with the same tires but they do stick out a little more than I really wanted.

Nice photo...
Do you have details about the wheels?

After long planing I finally ordered 35" Dura Trac tires for my original wheels.
I want to see how much more they stick out than with original tires and then decide about new wheels and if possible 4" lift.
The 4" lift needs 4.5 backspacing and I do not see this really working out for me with the 35" tires.
I have to add that here in Hong Kong they are very strict about tires what stick out....it is an absolute no go!
I already have the factory fender flares...

So I have to go one step after the other and measure.

I dont know anything about those wheels.. All I know is the stock wheels have an offset of +38 so if you went with a +12, your wheel will stick out 1" farther than stock.. It seems most 16" wheels have an offset of either -12 or zero so your choices become pretty limited outside of these.. I am currently looking for a wheel with an offset around +20 but there isnt much to chose from..

Edit: I just found out the wheels in the picture above are 16x10 with an offset of -24, which means they probably stick out almost 3" and thats way to much.. The owner was also complaining about slinging stuff all over the body everytime he drove through a puddle.. Here is a link to that thread: https://www.hummerforums.com/forum/h...-arrived-7358/

Thanks for the info and the link...

And you are right, they just stick out too much. There even my fender flares will not cover anymore.
It seems like that most wheels have the "0" offset as they then exactly fullfill the 4.5" backspace (16x8" rim)...what the 4" lift needs.
Yeah ok...next month the 35" tires will be installed and then measuring starts...
