You could go with a 4-1 offset, but I don't know if it will handle very well.

The 4+1 is the best handling wheel you can run on any width arm

Thats exactly right. That rim has the pivot point closest to the end of the A-arm reducing bump steer. I am currently running Laeger +2 arms with offset +1 douglas front rims (to make it +3 for MX) and I had to definitely get used to how it handled with those. I am honestly contemplating selling my arms and getting a set of +3 Laegers with 4-1 rims. Problem is, I like to also ride woods sometimes, and +3 would basically make it impossible for me to do that anymore...
