Default Wheel fitment

I want to get a 2 inch hell bentsteel leveling kit on my 2004 lariat with kmc monsters or kmc rockstars.

The monsters are Part Number: W/PXD77889066735

18x9 wheel size 6 on 135 and 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern
Backspace 6.38 in.
No Offset = 35 mm
The rockstars are
Size: 18x9
Finish: Black
Boltpattern: 6x135
Offset: 0
Back Spacing 5

I like the look of the monsters but I am not sure how far they are going to stock out of the fender or if they are going to rub. What do you guys think?

What size tires are you running? The +35 will allow fitment of up to 35s with minimal if any rubbing. The 0 offset wheels will limit your max tire size to 33s, unless you want to do some trimming. The second wheels will stick out roughly 2.5 inches or so more than the first ones. The +35 will stick out just a little more than stock, pretty flush with wheelwell. This info is based on 4wd truck for the tire fitment. Since your truck is 04 there will still be a little rake with 2 inch level. 04-05 usually take a 2.5 inch level to be level.

Right now the truck is a stock 4x4 I will probably want 33inch tires maybe 35 inch depend on the price difference. How far would the 0 offset stick out?

Roughly 2.5 inches further than stock. If those are the wheels you go with I would stick to 33s as the lack of backspacing will cause rub issues with the 35s.

Can you get the rockstars in a different offset with the six bolt pattern?

Looks like for the 18s that is it. In my opinion rockstars are too common, but if you like them and don't mind seeing the same wheels on other rigs frequently, then go for it.

I'd say nitto trail grapplers or toyo MT's if you really want to go for looks. Maybe even the stt coopers too. If you want long lasting is say nitto terra grapplers or BFG A/T er something like that
