Just wondering for any one running Raptor Wheels on a non-Raptor F150, did you run spacers or not? Specifically anyone running 315/70-17s. I know on factory offset wheels +44-34 if you run a 12.5 inch wide tire you will hit the upper control arms. I'm currently on 315/70-17 Toyo MT tires 17x8.5 wheels but they are 00 offset. I recently purchased a set of factory first gen Raptor wheels and got some brand new Toyo MTs in 315/70-17. I have some hubcentric 1.5 inch spacers I got as well which should turn that +34 offset into -4.

I have ran -11 offset 18x9 wheels on 35x12.5x18 tires before on this truck, and I have trimmed the fenders bit for that setup so this should work out for me. Front bumper clearance isn't an issue since I have an Addictive Desert Designs front bumper. But I'm trying to see if anyone has pictures of a similar setup: Raptor factory wheels, spacers, and 315/70-17 tires.



My current setup:


My old setup on the 18x9s with 35s.

 

I dont think you need to run spacers to run 315/70's on stock Raptor wheels. They already have a more negative offset than the stock F150 wheels and should clear the UCA's fine.

 

From what I've seen the factory F150 wheels for my gen were +44 offset, where the Raptor wheels are +34. I will test fit everything probably this weekend. I have tried running factory 20 inch FX4 wheels which probably had the same +44 offset before, I had 35x12.5x20 on those and were hitting the upper control arms bad, could not even mount them. Though a 10mm difference is about 0.4 inch which i could see maybe clearing, but I do know Raptors do have quite a few big suspension and axle differences which have a wider stance and might allow those 315/70-17 to work from the factory with that.

These were the ones I had tried before, was +44 offset.

 

I like your old setup better

 

I have a 13th gen but 315/70/17 fit on my leveled truck with raptor wheels.

i am currently running 305/70/17 just to add wiggle room for actual off road use

 

Lol. Thanks man. The offset was too negative though which, even with some trimming of the inner fender, would still catch going up driveways and shred the tires. I got the beadlocks for a great price and 00 offset has zero rubbing under any conditions. But I had an accident in March which messed up my hand and don't have the willingness to dismount and mount new tires on the beadlocks, and my front tires are done. So switching out to the Raptor wheels for now.

 

Do you have a picture more from the front or at an angle? I want to see how they sit with that offset?

 

 

Thanks man! Looks great. Really appreciate the pics.
