Default wide wheel delima

I'm thinking of buying a set of fuel hostage 20x14 wheels and put them on my 05 supercrew. I already have a 6in lift on it and am wondering do i need to level the trk before putting the wider wheels on and will they rub. changing the tires to 37x13.50/20 super swamper radials.

Yea a level at least. But even with that I still think you are going to have to trim quite a bit to be able to drive

14" wide? Why??


I assume from that setup youre not offroading, so super swampers wouldnt be the first choice IMO. Especially when they look super stretched on those wheels.

Please don't run a wheel wider than the tire.

Im not a big fan of that look. Actually, cant stand it. A tire needs to be around 2" wider than the wheel to look right in my opinion.

I'm ok with the wheel and tire being of the same width, but that's it. Like my truck will be running 15x10s on 31x10.50s soon here. But with a future plan of 32x11.50 or 33x12.50
