Default New Wheel Setup....

Heya guys! Finally got my wheels and tires on and I am rubbing. Thought I would be in the clear since Custom Wheel Offsets offered my set up as a no rub no mod for my truck. I ended up throwing on some Fuel Beast wheels 20x10 -18 with some Toyo Open Country AT2s 33x12.50R20. I am currently leveled on a MotoFab 2.5 kit. Would would be the best option to fix the rubbing?

Not much you can do with that rim offset and width short of putting a lift on the truck or swapping the rims.

You could try wheel spacers but it is iffy if that would even work with that much offset. Going from +44 to -18 is a big jump. I went 20x9 with +0mm offset and they rub at full lock. Like others have said, you will have to go up to around 3.5" to 4" or more to fit that offset or buy new wheels with a more positive offset.

Rent a porta power and spread the crash bars. You don't have to move them very much and they will still work the same. There are a lot of folks here that have done it.
