I am new to the site and just purchased a 09 f150 supercrew 4x4. i traded in my old truck and kept my new tires that i had just purchased for it. they are bfg mud terrain km2 in a 35 x12.5 x17. So I would like to purchase some aftermarket 17s. I want completely black. What backspacing should I stay with in order to fit with minimum rubbing. I believe around a 5.71 with a 18 offspace but not sure. I am having a leveling kit installed tomorrow. It is really hard to find that size in a 17.
I would prefer 20s but after you spent 1300 on tires its hard to sell them for nothing.
I spoke with 4 wheel parts and they said if I go with a 5.71 backspacing then the 35s will work. so I just purchased matte black addict. I will have the leveling kit installed tomorrow along with the wheels and tires, very anxious to see it.
I just purchased a 2009 black f 150 4x4. black on black but i have chrome bumpers.
BS is only part of the equation. How wide are the wheels? How much lift do you have? If they are wider than 8 inches (8.5 may work) and you only have a leveling kit, you will probably have serious rubbing issues.

I picked up my 17x8's with +18 offset from rimzoneonline.com for about $600 and you get free shipping. There are not many aftermarket wheels that will fit the f150's with 35's and a leveling kit but there are some out there you just need to do alot of searching to find what will work.
i purchased xd addicts 17x9. how do you post a pick and i will tomorrow when i get them on. And i will find out bout the rubbing tomorrow, but i dont do much off roading. I let the polaris ranger do that or the motocross bike.
