Default New Wheels

Hi all,

I have a question regarding new wheels. I have a 2020 F150 Lariat. I am looking to get Fuel Matte Black Vapor wheels (20x10 with a -19mm offset), with Nitto Ridge Grappler at 295/55/R20 tires..
I am new to owning a truck however the site says "Extremely aggressive wheel fitment requires a lift".

My question is what height lift do I need. I was looking to get only a 2" inch lift as I do not want to compromise my towing capability. Any advice here?

Good question. The tire is only about an inch larger than stock but you're sticking that thing out about 3". Could be an issue steering where the outer edge hits the bumper or crash bars. I don' know, just offering up the 3" poke if that wasn't your goal.

I have a 20x10 fuel rim with a -18 offset, it doesn't stick out that much but do poke out of the wheel well. I have a 6" lift and larger tires, I would think you would want a 3-4 inch lift. Here's a picture of the offset so you know what you'll have and I have more pictures in my profile if you want to look, best of luck.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the responses. I really appreciate the insight and the pictures. I don't think I mind the poke, looks a bit more edgy. I am assuming with the 6" lift you do not have any rub? I am trying for no rub with the least amount of lift possible. I tow an enclosed trailer with a 4 seater side X side, combined about 8500-9000 pounds. I don't want to lose any tow capacity (even though I am sure I will pay more at the pump).

So just an update. I pulled the trigger on it. Truck looks great! Rides great! No Rub and what seems like no tow loss.
