Default Okay everybody need help

Okay I have a 2006 f150 and just put new 305 bfg's. Im picking up a set of rims tomorrow that I got a great deal on. Couple of questions. The tires don't scrub now and I think the new rims are 18x9 will I be good on clearance and if some trimming im okay with that. And the next question is with those rims should I go with while letters out or white letters in. Thanks guys

You need to know offset or backspacing on the rims. what series 305 are they? 305/55? 305/60?

X2, I think white letters out look pretty good on black rims, I have white letters out on my BFGs

I can only chime in on the white letters part. Id put white inside and have all back outside.
