Fitament woes...

Rims:

20 inches.
8.5 in width.
5.5 backspacing.
19mm offset.

Are these going to stick out?

Thanks,
J.

Its not the rims that make everything stick out, its the tires them selves. Lowering or lifting?

I'm going to lower it, yeah I think you're right it's gonna be the tires.

275/55/20 is what's on there, I need a tire with a flatter sidewall. That tire has a tad too much rim protection and they'll stick out an inch or so.

One weird thing is the back doesn't stick out and is a pretty excellent fit, but the fronts (same size rims & tires) sticks out a little bit.

I'll probably just have to go with a different tire, although I'm going to hate spending the money on new tires as I just bought these, less than 25 miles on them.

275/55/20's, anyone looking for tires?

Its because of the lines of the truck, the track is perfect, but the front fenders just nose in.

Yeah my 24s stick out about 1/4in more in the front than in the back. I think I am going to put a set of 1/4in spacers in the back so they will apear to be the same.
