Default Tire Advice

Hello folks, first time poster here, hope I'm in the right catagory for this post

I have a 2008 F150 4X4 ext cab. I'm looking at installing a leveling kit and 285/70R17 Nitto's on AR Ribelle wheels with factory 5.5 spec's (offset/backspace or whatever the term is). I really don't like the looks of tires "sticking out" to far outside the fender wells but an inch or so is fine.

Could someone tell me how far outside the fender well this combo will be, or have a picture that I could see how this combo looks ??

Any help would be appreciated (as you can tell I'm not too educated on wheels)

Thanks

Sooner

They won't stick out really at all. Less than an inch that's for sure. My buddy has the same set up and his barley stick out.
