They come out 3" from the bottom of the front fender. (about the same in the rear) These rims have a mid offset. Depending on what you do as far as wheels you could adjust that distance.

 

Hey! Did you need the level kit to fit those shoes on? That's Awesome!! Thanks for posting that pic!

 

Im goint to say yes. Even before I purchased the truck I new what I wanted to do with it. My last truck had a 6" suspension 325/70/18's all that stuff. With this one I wanted a some what aggressive stance without the lift. I saw the look with the 2" leveling kit so for my it was a no brainer. Plus it rides like a dream

 

Thanks. I used Caliper paint, bought from a local store. It doesn't look too bad in the pic, but it actually turned out way too orangy. I'm repainting them with a more red color. I didn't even have to take the calipers off. I masked it and then any overspray or spillage, I cleaned with break clean.

 

get enough paint for the back too

 

i say no to strut spacers . they preload the spring and they move the upper a-arm down where the balljoint is in a bind this is my experince i had on my 2005 f-150 . i changed it out with skyjackers strut kit. the strut is 1" longer and two rings that measure 1" a peice for a 3" lift . the 3" will also preload the sping. struts ride so much better but cost more.

 

i have the 2" readylift on mine and no problems so far

 

Hey good looking truck Did you put that grille on yourself?? And if you did how the hell did you get your grille off! I have a billet insert for mine and I want to paint part of the grille but I cant get that f'er off

 

wish i could help u out man....mine came with that grille

 

What is the actual backspacing on those wheels? What width are they?

[EDIT]: I see they are 18x9. Still curious on the backspacing though - by mid offset, do you mean 4.5" BS?

Looks great!
