20x10 Rims 2011 F350

I have a 2011 F350 4" BDS 4 Link Lift . I currently have 35x12.5 toyo open country mts on with no issues ( Stock 20" rims ) , but i want new rims 20x10s wondering what offset i need to make the tires stick out past the fenders about 1.5 inches as i am going to put flares on and don't want the tires out past the 2" flares.

Please help Thanks

Hey guys I got a question maybe someone can help me.....Im lookin at getting some 2inch spacers.....now I've got an 04 f250 4x4 and I've seen some that are 14x1.5 and then I see some that are 14x2.0 now both are the correct lug pattern but not sure about the rest can anyone tell me which ones I should buy??

I believe you use the stock nuts to hold the wheel spacer onto the hub and if they give you nuts, use what they supply you with for the wheel. I believe most stock wheels are hub-centric, so that's why the stock nuts are flat on the mating surface, but since your using spacers and the wheel is no longer in contact with the hub, I'd make sure that they give you a conical style nut. They will center the stud in the hole. Usually when you go to an aftermarket rim, you'll need to change the diameter of the lug nut because the stockers are too large to fit, so that's why you see 14x1.5's. Those are the more slender style nuts used for clearance issues. I believe 14x2.0 are stock size nuts. Hope this helped

Ok guys some I'm glad im getting some help, but to be honest I didn't get nothing out of it....I know I want to use the nuts they send me to hold the spacer in, then use the nuts I got with my aftermarket wheels to hold the wheel on the spacer.....only thing I don't know is the thread pitch....not sure if I need the 1.5 or the 2.0

you need whatever your truck has from the factory. get a thread pitch gauge and check it.

I'm lookin to get wheels for my 08 RCLB soon. Looking at getting 20x10's with 33x12.5 tires. Probably -24 offset.. Do I need to get a leveling kit or anything to fit?

You should be fine at stock height if it's 4x4. May have to tie the fender liner back just for good measure but I doubt it.

I've just looked through all 56 pages of this thread and did not see a single dually! Any dually owners have a nice wheel/tire package they want to share? I'm due for some new tires and I'm wanting some ideas for my 08.

Would these fit a stock 02, if so what the off set need to be to fit right?
Thanks

I have a 2005 6.0, stock height truck. Will 305/50/20's fit nicely? Looking to run 20x12's on Nitto 420's. I am not going to level the truck. A 305 is a 32 inch tire correct?

Yeah thats a 32.05 tall tire. Should work well on that wheel setup.

What is your suspension setup?

I'd like to do this with a 2" ICON coil but I'm not a fan of cutting anything if I can avoid it.

Stock in the front, 1" block replacing stock rear block. I feel like the tires may look a little small with a 2" lift but I could be wrong. Idk
