Default Leveling FX 4 and adding wheels/tires

My brother has a 2014 SuperCrew F150 and he is wanting to level the truck and add a aftermarket wheel/tire combo.


What offset does he need to look at so the tires look right - not too far in and not sticking out 6 inches so it doesn't throw stuff up, and what leveling kits has everyone used or do they suggest?


Thanks in advance.

+20 or so for 9" wide wheels will have them stick out a little more than stock. Fitting "right" is entirely subjective, so we need to know if he wants them tucked or sticking out an inch or so.

Autospring levels are arguably the best out there (I think they're the best, period). They also happen to be dirt cheap. 100% American made in every facet, and a small company.

He likes the look like your truck has.

Cool! My wheels are 20x8.5" with +18 offset and about 6" of backspacing. So 20x9 (a much more common size than my wheels) with an offset between +15 and +25 would look about the same.

275mm wide tires. 275/60/20 is what I have, but I think his truck would look better with 275/65/20 cause they're an inch taller.
