Are these oem Ford wheels? I'm told they are, but i can't find them when I search for Expedition or F150 pics...
I'm going to look at them today for my 2008 2wd screw.

ok so 2" level kit minimum.
i find it interesting that they changed something from the 04-08 f150s to the next gen. these wheels i'm looking at came off a 2012 hence the +18mm offset, while my 2008 would normally come with -12mm offset.

Never bought aftermarket wheels before so I'm lost, I have a 2006 single cab short bed xl 2wd 5 speed
I found some fuel couplers I want. Originally I was gonna go with 17x9 and a 265/70/17 but the spokes on that wheel look very unproportional so I was going to go to the 20x9 with 275/55/20 the backspacing on the 20 with +20mm offset is 5.75 and the +1 offset is 5.00. I dnot know if I'm going to level it or lower it but for now it's stock height. Can I clear? I don't want to have any rubbing issues. Also do you think the truck will have any issues pulling the weight of the bigger tires or lose much mpg? I have the 235/70/17 on the ugly steel wheels currently.

Well im pretty frustrated ATM... after following the recommended specs, and then adding a 3" level kit, the tires still rub.. i dont understand it... My question now is if I ditch the aftermarket wheels, and have the 35s mounted on my stock 17" wheels, will i still have a problem? Or should i cut my losses and try to sell the wheels and tires and buy a size smaller?
Im so done with this...
