Default offset measurements

hi everyone,

i have decided to purchase some kmc xd addicts in matte black for my rescue green 07 2dr.

it has a little 2 inch lift on it. i will be running 17's with 33x12.50 cooper stt's

when i went online to wheel pros, there was a choice of -12mm offset or 18mm offset

which do i choose? does it matter? what will the difference be?

at one point in time i was looking at the aev pintler...they have 10mm offset.
what do i want on the addicts?

thanks in advance!

Sean

according to that i should stay between 4.5 and 4.75

i want them to stick out of the fenders far though...but i will do the recommended backspacing. 12.50 should get me out of the fender
