Default Fuel D680 Wheels

I have a Magnetic 2018 F150 FX4 Lariat. I have Bilstein 6112s at max height, Bilstein 5160 rears with a AutoSpring AAL. I have BFG KO2 285/65/20 tires, stock 20" PVD Chrome Wheels. I installed some fender flares (the bolt on look). After doing so, I don't love how the tires are tucked in to the fenders. I would like to get them more close to even with the Bushwacker Bolt On Flares. So naturally, I started looking at wheels. I am not sure how black wheels will look with a Magnetic truck with the Chrome Package, so I was leaning toward Fuel's "Anthracite" look. I came across the Fuel D680s. They have a number of different 20" options. I am thinking the best bet would be these for the look I am after, as far as making sure they are even with the fender and don’t rub...Thoughts?

If you have the chrome package maybe going with a black rim that isn't entirely black is a good option. I have these ...

With the 285/65/20s, and those flares, would the ones I listed (offset 1 and BSM 5) be more even with the fender and not rub?

Of that I have no idea man. I'm running stock flares with tires listed in my sig.

A lot of factors at work here and I don't know how big your flares are but at first glance I don't think that wheel is going fill those flares too much. Generally you’ll need a good bit of negative offset to fill out aftermarket flares, which usually cause rubbing without a true lift. Have you checked out customoffsets to research looks you’d be happy with?

These are mine. I run Anthem Offroad A711 Defenders in 20x9, +18mm offset. If you want more of a deep dish look or to widen the stance more, you can also get the 20x9 in -12mm, the 20x10 in -24mm, or the 20x12 in -44mm.

They have a few different designs and finish options (matte black, gloss black, black/machined, and chrome) worth checking out.

Looking at customoffsets it appears the offset that would getting me the furthest out, without rubbing, would be +20 on the 285/65/20 with 2.5" level.

Yeah that’s what I mean. Those wheels will help a little bit but you’ll probably still be pretty tucked.

How do you feel about 1.5" bora spacers vs going the wheel route? I know they will be roughly equal, but certainly a cheaper option to get a bit more stance.

Doesnt matter what route you go, you're going to be rubbing like a **** unless you're either willing to do some modding in the wheel well or willing to have that sunken in look. Thats a big tire and depending on what flare you have you could be needing an extra 2" or more. Imo it looks off if the wheels are sunken in
