Few Questions about my 2015 XLT
Hey everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. Name is Kristian and I just recently bought a 2015 XLT 5.0. Looking to start updating the cosmetics on it. I've already added the tow mirrors as I tow a 27ft boat with it. I've got the Anzo switchback headlights on their way in the mail. Next up is wheels and tires. I'm really leaning towards the Fuel Coupler wheels in 20x10. I'm looking to keep the wheels possibly flush with the fender or stick out just passed it. Can you guys recommend the backspacing and offset for these wheels. Also what would be the best size tire for these. I drive a lot and average about 20k miles a year. I'd like that off-road look. I bought a 2" leveling kit but haven't installed it yet. Can I buy these wheels and tires and install them without using the leveling kit?
Thanks for any help.

Congrats on the new purchase! I put 275/70/18 (33") BFG K02's on my 15 XLT with a 1.5" level up front. I've read that some have successfully fit a 33" wheel and tire without a front level as well, but it would depend on the offset. The BFG's have been a great mix of offroad look with fairly quiet road manners. I'm using Fuel wheels with a 0 offset and Bushwacker fender flares, so they would be pushing a bit outside of the stock fender. I suspect something like a +12 would probably be close to flush, but someone else will chime in I'm sure.

for these trucks. Flush/ sticking out a tad would be a +20
Great look with that setup also do NOT have rubbing or any trimming to do at all
i had +1 and they stick out a decent amount pretty aggressive i would say but i can assure you would be happy with the +20
