I purchased a 2018 F150 XLT with the stock wheels. The truck has a 2" Puck leveling kit in the front, nothingin the rear with aftermarket gas shocks and 35x10.5 tires. I am happy with the full set up, although, the wheels are just too "tucked in for my liking. Although, there is no rubbing or stress no matter what situation or steering elevation I am in, so I want to keep it that way. Was wondering what offset these wheels are, or what offset I need for the to be perfectly parallel with the fenders (do not want to stick outside the fenders). Was curious to see everyone's opinion on wheel spacers, offset wheels, wider tires etc etc. I do not want to cut or trim, and do not want to rub. So any help or information will be greatly appreciated
Honestly, just scrolling threw looking for answers and option. Can definitely get a answer in the morning. It's a 2018 f150 XLT with stock 18" wheels, that's all the information I have for now!!! Lol
No way I would add an offset. I made the big mistake of buying wheels with a small offset and the thing would shake the steering wheel once I put a few miles on a new set of tires. Keep it stock if you can.
Okay! I understand that. Honestly thought about trying to see if I could fins some 11.5 or even 12.5 used tires to slap on to see if they would rub at all and how the appearance was because honestly I wouldn't mind keeping the stock wheels. They look good IMO when they're shined up
Since you are posting in the 13th gen ill assume you have that despite your username having the 5.4 in it, lol. To get flush with the fenders I would say you need a +18 to a +25. +0 will get you a little poke. I have the factory paint to match fender flares and +18 was about dead even.
Be careful with tires, people squeeze a 35 in there and it fits because its narrow. Lots of fitment threads on here and you can search custom offsets gallery but you can fit up to a 315/70/17 on a 2 inch level +34. Once you push your wheel out, you start losing room. Ive had over 16 wheel and tire combos on 13th gen F150s and never had any issues
What the Mooseman said is right on. I have +20 offset wheels, and with 305/70/17 tires, Toyo ATIII's at 33.9" in height, I have zero rubbing and decent clearance. Tire poke is pretty much right at the edge with factory flares.
F150 Wheel Specifications, Can supply wheel specifications. Off-set is mostly 44mm some 34 mm. Been using 0 off-set wheels since my 2017 was delivered, no extra wear problems, tires or suspension, and I do look for that.
Probably a 12 mm off-set would put the tire at the wheel-well edge. My 17 2wd with 17x8 inch 0 off-set wheels and 275-70-17 tires, on a 1.75 level. KM
