Yeah -12 gives the tires a decent poke. This is my truck with 12" wide tires.

 

Either way it's too late, they are already in transit. I really like the -12 look, but hopefully it will all work out. All I know is there are too many damn choices when it comes to buying wheels, lol.

 

Lol very true. I drove myself insane trying to figure out which wheel I wanted.

 

You should be happy with the +12. It's the option I would have gone as well given your choices.

I, too, beat myself up over wheels. The ones I wanted only came in a 0 offset which I couldn't convince myself to buy (too much sticking out w/o new flares). I ended up with +18 with a 305 tire and am content with the stance.

 

What size tire?

 

not to high jack but looking at 20x9 I want them to stick out a bit from fender and I have two options....a 0mm offset and a +25MM offset.. which is better for fitment of a leveled 12 FX4.???

those are the two options I have on mine. If my research here tells me right I would be better with the 0mm offset as that will push the wheel out farther that a 25mm offset??

where as the 25 offset will push them back into the fender well more? do I got that right???

Thank you

 

(+ inside the fender),(- outside the fender). Ford rims are normally +44 or 44 anything with less than that will give you an offset. 0 will bring you out 44mm, 25 will bring you out 19mm 44-25=19. Also keep in mind the rim backspace. 5 inches of backspace minimum is recommended.

 

Ford rims on most trucks are +44 and that's measured in mm for those that don't know. I put -12 offset wheels on my truck and they stick out about 2". Pics from all angles.

stock is +44
this is 0

 

Is everything else exactly the same as stock? Stock is also likely 8.5" wide rim. Is that an 8.5 or a 9"?
