backspacing & dish comparison

quick question...would a 20x10 wheel with -25MM offset and 4.52" of backspace have a larger lip (dish) than a 20x9 wheel with +12MM offset and 5.47" of backspace? or will they both have the same amount of dish, just the 20x10 is 1 inch larger in width than the 20x9? thanks for any help guys. -Ryan

The 10" wheel is going to have more lip. It's wider, and has less backspacing. Depending on the design of the wheel/thickness of the spokes, you could be talking up to a couple inches more dish.

You have to be concerned about fitment also. On the new F-150's a 10 inch wide wheel with 4.52 inches of backspacing is gonna stick out really far.

I think 35's with those 10 inch wide wheels will be a tight fit.
