The tires are 11.5 wide on OEM wheels so they sit like original wheels. The OEMs are +44 offset.
My previous FX2 had -22 offset and stuck out a lot. I added Bushwhacker pocket style flares to cover them...these don't need flares.
I'll get some picts soon. Just took a few when I got to work. Rear end only for now.

Anxiously waiting for some close up pics of the tires. I'm considering running this exact tire and size on my FX4. I have BOSS coilovers but they're only set at 1.75" and the rear is stock. I know they'll fit, I'm just worried about rubbing and if I'll have to crank the coilovers up and get a block for the back.
I wonder how many miles folks will get out of these tires, too. I have Nitto Terra Grappler G2s on my truck now and I have right at 50K miles on them and they're just about done. I know some folks that have gotten 40K out of Trail Grapplers so I'm thinking 45K out of these is easily doable. I'd be happy with 45K.
Truck looks good! Now post some more pics!

I really like this set up but want more offset. Not sure if I want aftermarket wheels though. I really like my FX4 20's. Maybe I will run the 35x11.50's and 1-1.25" Bora Adapters.
