American Force 22x11 Wheels

Sjet1 · Jun 15, 2013

Is anyone running the AF 22x11's? I am doing research on the wheels to potentially install them on my 2012 F350 with 2.5" stage II Ready Lift. American Force is telling me they will not protrude from the fender as much as the 22x10's because they are a 0 offset instead of the -25 on the 22x10's. They are also telling me the 22x11's will fit with 305/50r22's and guaranteed not to rub with the 2.5" level kit. I would prefer to wrap them in a 325/50r22. Pictures would be great if anyone is doing this setup...

Looking at the same setup.. but nothing.. seems the guys running AF's have the money for the big lift kits. havent found much on leveled suspension.

Guys.

DONT GO 22x11s. Me and Sean O'Hara went over this on my 2013 I did 2 months ago. They are way too far in and will rub on the radius arm.

My 2013 has a 3.5" with 22x10 Deltas and 35x13.0 MT's, with NO contact whatsover.

Ill post a couple pictures from my mobile shortly..

Sounds great, I just want about 3" of lip and i will be happy. Little negative offset sticking out. Cant wait to see pics. Ill probably run with the PMF 3" but tossing around the idea of the icon coilover with spacer.

Jared, why do you say they are way to far in? With what size tires? Do you actually install a set or just take measurements? More info on this please!

He is referring to the offset. Tire size probably doesn't make to much of a difference due to the offset.

Might have to rock the 22x10's on your truck, Nick

Exactly. The radius arms come pretty close, I can only imagine it being worse on an older truck.

What offset were they Jared?

Cant you get AF wheels in different offsets?

I spoke with AF techs today in detail about this and they assured me I would have no contact on the radius arms with the 22x11(0 Offset) and a 325/50/22 AT tire. They also said because the setup is less aggressive than the 22x10(-25 offset) there will be minimal trimming (most likely just inner fender) with a leveling kit installed and will stick out approx .5"-1" less than the 22x10. Just for reassurance he told me he just did a setup for a guy on his 2012 F350 with stock suspension using a 24x11(0 offset) running a 325/45/24 with no radius arm rubbing! That setup is I believe around a 35.5" tire vs my 34.8. I am going to be the Guinea pig on this one and go for it. As we say in the aviation industry P.O.O (Parts On Order)!

1) Ready lift stage 2 leveling kit - POO
2) American Force Recon 22x11 (0 Offset) - POO
3) Dynapro ATm 325/50s22 - POO
3) Amp Research Powersteps - Installed. Thanks Absolute Performance!
4) Color Matched Front Grille - Installed

You will love those tires, cant wait to see it!

Tires showed up today. I hope they perform as good as they look. After calling around to about 20 different tire shops in the area I was able to score them for $371/tire... and yes they are 2013 s/n's.

Wheels arrived... Ordered them through the Truck Wurx guys down in Vegas.

I really like my dynapro's. gonna be dead sexy.

TXGLASSMAN · Aug 5, 2013

What kind of mileage are those tires lasting?

02BigD · Aug 5, 2013

I've got 30k on a set of 325/65/18, the rears look almost new, and the fronts look halfway. I keep the fronts on the front for the life of the tire.

I had the guys mount one of the tires this afternoon as a test fit before everything gets done tomorrow and I couldn't be happier. I will get detailed measurements and photos up later but here is what I have so far.

With the AF 22x11 (0 offset) and Hankook Dynapro AT 325/50/22's on stock suspension the only thing the tire rubs on lock to lock is a small portion of the inner fender liner! No front bumper mount rubbing, no radius arm rubbing. Of course this is all stationary without bumps and potholes and that is why I am leveling the truck. Here are a couple pics from this afternoon.
