Default Rim Size and question

Looking at some Fuel rims, Ripper.

From what I gather I need 6x135. I don't want my tires to stick out past the fender and I'm keeping stock size, 275/55 20.

Is the 20 offset enough to keep the setup within the fender and not rub?

From what my friend who is the service manager at a dealership, OEM rims are a +44 offset which keeps the tires inside the wheel well. The ripper which is +20 should only move you out further by an inch which should not really be an issue for you. Nice Rims by the way.

Just my thoughts.

thanks on the rippers, trying an aggressive plain approach.

Im throwing out on the forum for real world experience and advice. I have had different shops say different things. Thanks for the info on the +18, if I understand this offset thing correctly then I should be more tucked in than yours because of the skinner tire and +2 offset.

i know the OEMs have an offset of +44 as well, it's on 20x8.5 rim. I don't know the back spacing measurements on the OEM rim or Fuel. Will the 20x9 +20 fit and give enough clearance on all the suspension brakes and fit without rubbing? I'm keeping the fx4 stock height by the way.

Anyone running 20x9 wheel with offset of +20 with stock 275/55 20 and stock height?

+20 = Yes.

You will notice very little difference in width and will have no issue with clearance.

can you post some shots down the length of the truck? i've been eyeing +20 with a 285/65 on a 20x9. i want to be flush with maybe 1/4" max outside the fender.

with a wider tire and +20 offset you might stick out more than 1/4". Mine stick out about that much. My tire's are 275/55 20
