Default Looking for down the truck (side) picture request!

Hey guys, i'm having a hard time deciding on a 20x9 +1 offset, 5" backspace or a 20x10, -12, 5" backspace. I'm looking only at the nitto trail grappler tires in either a 295/60/20 or a 305/55/20. I would appreciate if anyone who has either of these setups could help me out with some pictures of both the side to gauge wheel well gaps, or more importantly down the truck to decide on which setup will give me the tire pushout i'm looking for.

Thank you in advance, your help is greatly appreciated!

I have 18x9 Fuel's in 0 offset so pretty close to your 1mm for a reference point.

that's exactly what I'm looking for, for reference what tire size are you running? looks like a 305 or 33" maybe?

Dick Cepek DC-2's 20x9's with a +0mm offset
305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers

So it's about the same offset with the same tire size.

Excellent, thank you. I feel much more confident in my choice I want to go with then. How bad did those 35's dog it down? Do you get rubbing? I chose the 295 to kind of stick on based on the split reports of rubbing, and with that size i'm around an inch narrower and .5inch shorter so i figured that would eliminate that.

Thank you kindly also sir, as said above, your trucks look great and that's exactly what i'm going for.



I really think these rims are going to set the 2 tone off nicely, what do you all think? Not my truck, but same one with similar setup when finished as I'm looking at except I believe those are 33's, but has a level and AAL like mine will

I had to do some minor plastic trimming but they fit well with my 3" lift, I didn't feel any bog down, of coarse that's because of my gryphon.... Took me a while to choose my wheel tire combo but I couldn't be happier, I'm liking the ones your looking at though.... I think it will look sharp

I was wondering if you had a 3" up front or not, seemed to be a bit extra wheel well room which i like. I also have a gryphon installed, been running it on 87 tow all winter but just switched to the custom 91 performance I had written for 35's when I got it. speedos off a little with my 32's still on there or whatever the stock size is haha. I'm really thinking it's going to look good with that grey matching, we will see!

Yeah, I have the f150lifts.com coilovers, I run my custom 87 tow with 91 and octane booster... That's my favorite, I'll run my 91 performance on highway trips though.
