Default 35's on 20's

i have a 05 fx4 sc w/ a 2" leveling kit in front. and have a set of 35 1250 20's and i want to mount them on my truck with some 20x10 rockstars but they only come in a -24mm offset. does anyone know if they will fit w/ minor rubbing or if they just wont fit at all? is anyone already running this tire w/ this setup?

Those will definitely not fit. I have a 2.5inch level kit and 35x11.6 tires on my stock 20 inch wheels which were a +44mm offset and they rubbed a little bit. Now, I have 20 inch wheels with a +12mm offset and they fit perfectly. Having a -24mm offset will move the wheels out so far that when you turn you will rub the inner wheel fender and they will hit the fender flare on the back side. Not too mention they will hit the lower valence plastic and most likely the metal bumper itself. Hope this helps.

Hmmm...that I am not sure of. I dont think I have seen anyone on here with 33's and a -24mm offset rim. You will have to get someone elses input on that one. haha. I can say that with the 33's its more likely but I still dont know if they will. Those will stick out probably close to 3 inches from the fender flares. I cant see where they will fit but like I said, someone else needs to chime in on this. Good luck!

I can't remember what my offset is but I run 33x12.50 mud grapplers on 20x10 Rbp r95's and they slightly rub a lil mainly when I'm backing up

any way you can figure out what the backspacing is on yours? that looks really good too! im also looking at some 20x9's w/ -12 offset for the 33's or 35's just not sure which ones will fit best and look best

Thanks. But first, dont know if you want to look at a truck with a high negative offset.

Wchamp7, has a nice truck with a negative offset like you were talking about originally but I am not sure about his offset. I would get atleast -12mm and it looks pretty sweet.

With mine I have 20x9 +12mm wheels with 295/65/20 (35.1") and I had to trim some of the plastic lower valence up front (easy) and also had to cut some of the inner fender so when I turned and backed up, the tires wouldnt rub. It wasnt a ton of cutting but it definitely needed to be done and now there is no problems.

It all depends on what type of stance you are looking for. I was going for a big tire look and not a wheels-out stance. My wheels are almost perfectly level with the fender flares.

Ill hafta find out I'm not sure but I've gotta 3inch leveling kit and you may have some trouble with the 35's. I tried it then took um right back off and now I'm stuck with um. Better go with a six inch to be safe
