Default Wheel offset?

I'm looking to buy a set of 20x12 -44 offset wheels for my 2008 f150. How far outside the fender will the wheels stick out? I'm getting 34x11 Toyo tires to put on them as well.

A long way. 6" or so maybe more is my best guess. You can do a google reach for it and get a good visual idea.

I'm parked crooked but you get the idea. How big of a lift do you have?

I'll say about 4" or so. Hope you have a 6" lift too.

I thought that too I'm running 20x12 with a -44 offset with 35x12.5x20. originally with a 6" lift I trimmed the front valance but it was still rubbing against the rear of the fender and that would require trimming metel which I didn't want to do. Be prepared to buy some bilstein 5100 adjustable struts and a AAL to the rear.

I figured it would rub but I'm not running a 35 by 12.5 im running a 34x11 Toyo mt so hopefully I'll get alittle more clearance.

Because I'm going for the stretched look but I don't want it too extreme like a 10.5 on a 12 rim.
