20x12 fuel hostage rims on 37s with a -44 offset any pics please

slightlymodded · Jan 28, 2015

My 6.0. F350 4x4 with rear block removed, stock front, 2" wheel centric wheel spacers, lariat stock 18s, 275/70/18. No rubbing beautiful stance. (Had to shave the nipple off the wheel studs on the front, they were a hair to long and wouldn't let the stock rims sit flush, to run stock rims GET WHEEL CENTRIC SPACERS, or you will have a rough ride)

In the middle of doing an overhaul on the truck, here's the stance now.
F350 4x4, no rear block, 2.5" leveling kit donuts on front coils, 2014 stock king ranch 20s wrapped in new 35x12.50/20 mud grapplers, on 2" wheel centric wheel spacers, no rubbing so far, haven't drivin it yet though.

Loving the more agressive stance so far

I have just read through most of this thread.. Some really nice looking trucks!

Right now have +40 offset 35x12.50x20 stock height with no rubbing anywhere

I just bought some fuel nutz 20x10 -24 offset with Nitto Trail grappler Mt. I have 2011 f250 they are going on stock height. I am considering 2.5" level kit or 4" lift. If I decide to go with 2.5 level kit will the tires rub? How much will stick out? Thinking of some bushwhacker flares to hopefully cover them up.

Here is my truck now and the new wheels I just picked up to go on it this weekend.

Ok guys new to the group and I've read his entire thread. I'm looking for definate answer. I have a 2005 KR With 2.5 leveling kit running 35s on stock KR 18's they barely rub control arms at full lock. I'm ab to pull the trigger on 20x12 -44 fuels with 35x12.50 fuel mt's. Minor trimming is fine but I'd rather not get into cutting sheet metal. What do you guys think? Will it work? Anyone have pics? If no what's the biggest tire I can run? Thanks in advanced! Awesome forum!!!

That will scrub bad with that lift and will require a lot of trimming. You're going to need at least 4" to clear 35's on 12 wides.

It's gonna rub. I have 22 x 12 -44 offset with 36 x 12.5 tires and it rubs with a 6" lift. I also had to cut the inner fender well and trim the lower fender at the bottom where the stock fender flares are

black'n'blue · Jan 30, 2015

Btw I have a 2005 Lariat. Our wheel wells suk

coppertone6.oh · Jan 30, 2015

Well that sucks. I think 33s just look small on our trucks. How exactly are you guys cutting the fenders? Surely someone has done it with pictures of the damage.

black'n'blue · Jan 31, 2015

I'll grab A pic tomm for ya

The first pic is of the wheel well. The second is the stock fender flares and the fender. The third is the front piece under the bumper

The second pic is from under the truck looking up

Stroghty · Feb 1, 2015

Put them on. Had to modify the front lower bumper basket on both sides. Also had to trim inside the fender (the felt) on both sides. No scrubbing now. Completely stock height. Wheels 20x10 -24 offset 35x12.50 Nitto grappler MT's. Looks really good in person. Adding flares and 2" level kit next week...

coppertone6.oh · Feb 2, 2015

Thanks for the replies guys. I want a nice stance, with as much rubber as possible with no more lift. Any suggestions? 20x10s with 35s?

ford_muscle1 · Feb 15, 2015

So I am ready to get some rims and tires and finally found rims I like. So I was looking at the Fuel Trophy in 20x10 they have -18 offset and 4.75 backspace. Part number is D55120001747. Was going to get 35x12.50-20 Nitto Exo Grapplers for tires.

So the truck is leveled 2.5 inches and currently has 325x65-18 on it and they only rub on the radius arms at full lock.

So does anyone think I will have any issues with this setup? I have to order the stuff since I can't find any shops local to me so trying to get this right the first time. Thanks.
