For those who are wondering. I did an experiment this weekend. I scored myself a second set of Raptor wheels a couple weeks ago. The second set is complete with TPMS, center caps and old tires. The two rears are done, completely. The fronts have a little less than 50% tread I would say. My truck's suspension is completely stock. No lift or level. It is a 2013 XLT.

While I was plastidipping my stock wheels that I am running 285/65/18 BFG TA KO2's on, I threw the Raptor wheels and tires on. I have no rubbing at all. And I have been driving this setup for a couple days through my normal routine.

Now I will admit that these are worn tires and it is close, but I plan when the time comes to actual throw new tires on the wheels that a 1.5" level max will be sufficient to clear everything. I will also say that I have not taken the truck off-road or flexed it all, but normal driving I get no rubbing and I can turn lock to lock with no problems.

I will also need to add a minimal flare. I will probably go with the Bushwhacker OEM style and paint them to match the truck. I would go OEM, but I prefer not to drill into the truck.

I am loving the ride of the truck with the Load D tires with a larger sidewall. So much nicer than my current Load E tires. Worst mistake I ever made was putting the E-rated tires on my truck. Love the tire, hate the ride.

With all of that, here are some photes for you all.

For the Fuel wheels, the offset is +20mm?

Nice looking setup.
