Default Aftermarket wheels to stock wheels

Do y'all think stock 20s will fit on my 35x12.5R20 tires? And won't rub either.
6"fabtech lift

No I think they will hit the bigger knuckle check with the company you bought your lift from and see what back spacing you need

I think your Fabtech will be fine, measure the backspace on the stock 20s first, I think 5.5 will work on the Fabtech but don't quote me

Default Stock 20" goes on fine without any rub

I have an 08 FX4 Screw with a 6" Fabtech lift. I am running stock oem 20" rims with 35" trail grapplers. Tire and rim still have over 2 inches before they even hit or rub the spindle and they are not even close to the knuckle. At full lock they do not rub at all. I don't know how to add pictures on here, but I can send some to you if you want. Ill try to put a picture up

Default Love them too much to sell

Sorry man, not for sale or trade. I purposely did a lot of research and test fit the stock rim and 35" combo on multiple lifts to make sure they worked. I love my oem 20" and have my truck this way on purpose. check around a lot of people selling these oem 20". Bottom line, everyone on here saying stock 20s have too much back spacing for 6" lifts is wrong. Every says they only fit the discontinued rancho 4". ture they do fit the rancho, but Ive tried them on fabtech and procomp and no issues. Pro-comp is close and may need a 1/4 inch spacer depending on side wall knubs of tire. I have almost 2 inches between the tire sidewell and the knuckle.

I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to the OP.
