Hey everyone I'm planning on getting new wheels for my 2007 F150 XLT. The wheels that I'm looking at are 18.0 by 9.0 with a -12 offset and 4.466 back spacing do you think these will fit my truck without any rubbing issues. My truck is bone stock and I will be using stock tires 275/65/18.

Hell yes they will....itll almost be 2 inches from where the stock tires sit now. Stock BS is 6.1 (abouts) and yours is 4.5" so 1.6 inches difference.

I'm not 100% sure man but I think you'll have to do some serious trimming I have 17x9s with -12mm offset and it sticks out a lot

yea i am wondering that too...stock tires with a offset wheel. It might not be bad since the tires are stock. Measure your clearance when your tires are at full lock and see if you have 1.5" to spare.

I have a 2.5" level and 2" blocks in the rear and all I had to do is trim the valance in the front a little to fit 20x10 with a -14 offset running 33x12.5 open countrys

They do have another size in these wheels 18x9 with a 32 offset and 6 back spacing but I think they wouldn't stick out as much probably the same as stock.
