Default What is my offset/backspacing 4x2 XLT

Hey guys I'm trying to figure out what my backspacing and offset is on my wheels, how can I find this out? I have a 2012 XLT 4x2 Super Crew

measure it. Take off a wheel, lay it down backside up, stretch a steel measuring tape across diameter of rim, lip to lip, not on sidewall of tire, use another measure to gauge distance down to the mounting flange, or center of the rim. That's backspace.

The rim should be marked somewhere with it's width. Subtract the backspace from the width, and the difference is the offset. imp

Backspacing on my 18" chrome clad wheels was right at 6". I think the offset was +44. Not sure if it is the exact same for all F150 wheels though.
