Tires: Nitto Trail Grappler M/T 305/70-20
Rims: XD Addict Black
Size: 20x9

which one to go with ??
-12mm 4.50"
+18mm 5.71"

How much will each stick out past the fender ??
If I go with a bushwacker pocket style fender flares, what will look good ??

I have a 2wd with 2.5" leveling kit (for now), might do a 6" pro comp lift in the near future.

thanks

Question

Hello, i have a 2006 ford f150 screw lariat with the factory 20 inch wheels
I want to put nitto trail grappers on, size 295/65/20. Also i would get a 2.5 inch leveling kit. Will it work? I know i have to trim up the plastic, but will i have to cut any metal behind the plastic inner wheel well? Will it hit the upper control arm?? Oneperson on here has them on his truck, but then someone else says theirs wouldnt work and that it hit the control arm. Would an allignment help with this? They are only 35's and according to this they should work. My wheel width is 8.5 inch, i dont know about the backspacing. Please help!

if its 4x4 then they'll fit but you'll need wheel spacers or aftermarket wheels with the correct Back Spacing to not rub the UCA's

Default XD Spy's 17x9

Ok gents, I have tried to read through a lot of these posts, yet cannot determine what I can run with my current setup.

06 XLT 2WD

2" Leveling Kit

315/70R17

As far as aftermarket wheels go....what can I get away with? Right now I only rub @ FULL CRANK and its very MINOR....

Thanks,

Mardybum

found some 22"x11 KMC Monster XD, backspacing is 4.27", will it stick out too much ??
and if I throw some 33" on there, will I have rubbing issues ?
