Default Newbie with offset question

Been roaming the forum ever since my gf bought a 2012 F150. Lots of good info on here! She's been wanting some new wheels and recently a set popped up on CL but I'm not positive they'd work out, so here I am. They are off a 2017 f150. Is that year still the same setup on a 2012? Also, they are 20x9 with a +15mm offset. I checked around customwheeloffset.com but didn't see that +15mm offset and wheel size.

Thanks for any help.

The 2012 (gen'12 - 2009-2014) F-150 does have the same wheels spec's are the 2017 (gen'13 - 2015+) F-150. Those being


So, the "20x9 with a +15mm offset" would need to be taken into consideration for determining fitment. e.g. 1.6" difference - 1.1" (offset) + ½" (½ the difference in rim width - 9" vs 8½") *OEM 20" rim width is 8½"
As well as any difference in tire spec's - sectional width (steering, suspension component interference considerations), tread width (body panel, fender, etc. interence considerations), and diameter (any interference + speedometer variance).

Do some ciphering and measuring to determine your good-to-go-edness.

Another consideration ... TPMS sensors. gen'13 (TMPS-35) are not interchangeable with gen'12 (TPMS-12) - different frequencies.

BTW ... What's up with the provided URLs
  • the 2012 F150 takes you to an eBay® rear head rest listing.
  • the 2017 f150 takes you to an eBay® Raptor bumper, light combo' listing.
