Default Thinking of getting new wheels....

Im thinking about buying new wheels. Fuel Mavericks 20x10 Deep lip. And running 35x12.50's. What do you guys think of the bigger wheel like that, on a leveled Screw? I thought i saw a pic of a guy with 20's on his Screw but i cant seem to find it again.

I have 20x12s and 33 12.5 toyos and scrubbed hard, no way you'll cram 35s with -24 offset

Your wheel is also 2" wider than the one im thinking about... Wouldnt that make a difference?

Found this pic on here, no sure of the backspacing but those are 35x12.50-20 on a tbar crank

Im personally against it. But, I might be a little biased because you have my favorite wheels of all time on your truck.

I like the wheel i have, i do. And for some reason they just look awesome on my truck. Compared to Jeeps, and 2500's and Nissan's and just about everything out there. They have become extremely popular around where i live. And they look like crap on everything that i see them on. You can tell mine have been on there awhile because of the center cap, its polished, the new ones are black. But if i do decide to get new wheels, ill sell them to ya cheap!

(even if you are a *cough *cough, bulldog fan.....) lol

Like I said 20x10 is -24 offset. You'll have to trim ALOT to fit 35s

haha I appreciate that, I really do. I take it you must be a gamecock or clemson fan?

I found these pictures earlier today. I thought they might be useful to you.

20x12 with 35s and it looks like a leveling kit maxed out, which I would noy suggest.

Dont insult me.... Im a Gator!


Im just not crazy about a 12" wide wheel. I hate how it sticks out like that.. And yea, im not maxing out my tbars either. Other than that, thats a great looking truck. A buddy of mine has one similar to that, he has a 6" with 20x12 chrome maverick's on 37x13.50 on his tho.

I think 12 wides look good on some trucks and ugly on others. For me it just depends on the truck. I personally am a 20x10 fan myself. Thundah will have a set one day. As for being a gator fan, well, you'll be the only reason I feel bad when we beat you guys this year. haha
