If anyone was on the fence, I love these wheels. Never been a fan of black wheels so I got the Carbon Graphite. Also could only find pics of this wheel on a Raptor so hopefully this helps
Vorsteiner lists these as a +10 or +12 offset, but they really don't seem to pop out much. I'm currently running a +18 on 295/55/20's and it seems to be much more "pop" than these...can anyone explain this? I'm VERY unhappy with the cheap wheels I purchased, and more than that, the less-than-acceptable post-sale support offered by the distributor. Any direction will be greatly appreciated, I'm somewhat new at all of this!
I love those wheels! Not sure who you purchased from but Nick at Apollo Optics always seems very helpful. Possibly get some Bora wheel spacers. They are probably one of the top 2 best brand of wheel and hub centric wheel spacers.

The lower the offset the more outwards the wheels go brother, the +12 Vorsteiner have do not poke pass the fender.
If you want to have some poke then you would need some spacer added to push the wheel out a bit more.
These wheels are Dropstar 650B, 20x9 with +18 offset. Running 295/55/20 Nitto Trail Grapplers. I would assume if these are a +18 the +10 would pop further out. The pic I posted before where I posed the question was maybe poorly worded, but can you see my confusion?

Honestly,, this looks more like a -18 than a +18. That is sticking out quite aways.I have a -13 set up and it looks very closer to this. Nice truck,though!

From the other setups I’ve seen I completely agree with you. Here is a screenshot from their website. I actually looked for a +18 because I really liked the look of Desert Dawg’s white 2011 EcoBoost, but it looks like he’s since changed trucks but stuck with a +18 offset and 295 tires.
I guess my ultimate point here is that I’d like to buy a nicer quality wheel (specifically the Venom Rex), but I’m looking for a stance similar to what I have now. If you look at the Raptor pics above the Venom Rex wheels come out near the edge of the wheel well, and those trucks have a protruding fender flare. The pics on the XLT seem to come to the same (or similar) place with no fender flare. I don’t mind dropping the dime on these wheels, but want to be sure about what I’m getting into. Very confused after doing lots of research and feeling like I had a handle on it, lol.
