Thoughts on after market wheels.
 
1 Attachment(s)
Okay. I have a 2015 magnetic screw with fox coil-overs and rear shocks. I am running 275/65/20 bfg at ko2's on stock platinum 20 inch wheels with BORA 1.5 spacers. Currently the wheels/tires are flush with the oem flares.

I think i am ready to take the plunge and buy aftermarket wheels but i am not sure how to get the same appearance i have now.

Any suggestions on what dimensions i should be looking for in a wheel. I am thinking 20x9 or 10 but the back spacing and offset confuse me

What back spacing/ offset get me flush with the oem flares for both a 9 inch wheel and a 10 inch wheel.

I have attached a pic of my current stance.

Your stock wheels are+44 mm. Your spacers have kicked them out close to 38mm. 25.4mm/1" So, if you could find some +6mm or so wheels, you'd be good to go. Good luck though, bet it's pretty hard to find ones that exact. But there you go.;)

Thank you for the info. That gives me a place to start.

Based on the information given, would a wheel with 0 look fairly flush? Stupid question but does changing the width between 9 or 10 change everything?

I am not seeking perfection but i am trying to avoid having the wheels tucked underneath too much.

0 offset may stick out too much. I'm running 20x9+20 wheels with 33x12.5 tires. I know it's hard to see in pictures but this is the stance on mine.

This is a very useful visual tool to explain what will happen as you change the offset and wheel width.

The wheel/stance you have looks great. Thanks for posting that link.

+1 offset.

I think a 20x9 +1mm is what you want. Its one of the most common sizes too, which should help. It will stick out a hair further than your current setup, but I dont know that ~5mm will really be that noticeable. If anything, sitting just a hair outside the flare will look better than sitting just inside.

Looks good. Does anyone have pics of a 275/65/20 on a 20x9 +1 wheel. I know I am asking for a lost, but it can’t hurt to ask.

On a side note, I stopped at a local wheel shop today when I was out. They looked at my truck through the shop window and said I most likely needed 20x9 +18. From what I am, seeing here that would have the tires tucked underneath the truck.
