Default Time for New Shoes

I've got an 04 with a 6 in fabtech susp. lift along with a 3 body. My 37" Nittos are just about wore out so I'm going to buy some new shoes for her, so i might as well get new rims. My question is if any of yall have a simular set up? I want to make sure these Fuel Hostage 20 x 12's with 38 x 13.50 Toyo MT's will run without tearing my fender well all to hell.

http://rimzoneonline.com/wheels/fuel...120209847.html

The offset is -44 so its pushing the rim out further from the hub. I've read all the threads referring to this but want to know first hand that someone has a simular set up and it works. Theoriticly it does but thats I want to know first hand.

Thanks for the help fellas!!

I've got a friend with an 05 F-150 with a 4" lift, 3" body, and level. He's running 20x12 -44 rims with 35x12.5 Toyo MT's and thinks he could fit some 37's under his so you should be good. Actually I follow a guy on instagram (ecww_21) that has a 6" lift, 3" body, and a level, running 20x14 -72 with 40x15.5 Mud Grapplers. If anyone has thoughts different please chime in.

Alright, so here's the deal. I'm looking at a set of 17x8 Tuff T03's with a -12 offset. The tires will be a 295/70 Nitto or a 305/70 I've heard people say that with 2.5" added from Billies I'll still need to trim my valence due to rub (but it won't rub the UCA), and I've heard people say that it won't be a huge deal and it'll fit without issue.

Then I've heard that it won't even fit at all. If I went with an 18x9 or a 20x9 what offset would I need? I've heard with an 18x9 I would need a +0 and with a 20x9 I'll need a positive offset. I'm looking for the tires to stick out past the well by an inch and a half, maybe 2 inches. Any chance you guys can help me out here?

Looks good, dude! You think I'd be ok with a 295/70 on a 2.5? Again, I've heard varying reports. I'm thinking that a -12 offset with an 8 inch wide rim will be alright. I'm up in IL, so I don't want to break the law and have to get flares.... stupid IL laws.

I have the bilsteins you will not get 2.5" its somewhere between 2 and 2 3/16" that's all I got I have 295/70/18 st maxx's and had to trim a little on a 18x9 +1 offset. I don't think you will find an 18x8 wheel its usually 17x8 or 18x9. I can get pics of how far they stick out

That's awesome! The Tuff T03s were a 17x8. The 18s were 18x9. If I said 18x8 it would have been a typo due to my fat fingers.
