20X9 Offset: +18, backspace: 5.71 (sku: MO9512963218)
20X9 Offset: +30, backspace: 6.18 (sku: MO9512963230)

And i like your setup a lot. I'm really thinking of buying thoses wheels & tires.
They look amazing !

Can't find any 20X9 951 rims with a +18mm offset and a 5.5" backspacing. I'll keep looking over the net. The only other model (6/135 bolts pattern) is a 20X10 951 with a offset of -18mm and a backspacing of 4.79". (sku: MO9512063218)

After some reading over the net, here's what i found about the Moto Metal 951 chrome rims + 35X12.50R20 Toyo Open Country tires package:

There's 3 models available for the 951 rims in 6X135 bolt pattern (for an 2004-2008 f-150):

20X9 Offset: +30, backspace: 6.18 (sku: MO9512963230) = Package will stick out of the fender by approx. 39mm (1.5'') farther (pretty similar to OEM rims)



--------------------------------------------------------------------------
My favorite...
20X9 Offset: +18, backspace: 5.71 (sku: MO9512963218) = Package will stick out of the fender by approx. 51mm (2") farther
Theses are not Moto Metal rims but they have the same offset and bs.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------
20X10 Offset: -18 backspace: 4.79 (sku: MO9512063218) = Package will stick out of the fender by approx. 87mm (3.4") farther
(Not the Toyo M/T on the first picture, Mickey Thompson Baja Radial ATZ 33x13.50R20)

sorry to resurrect a thread, but i need to know

i plan on the HB steel 2.5 kit for my 06 screw and i was going to put these 35inch Toyo O.C. m/ts on my stock 18 inch rims. (hence why i searched and read this thread)

i see from reading this thread that i cant put these tires on my stock 18 rims due to the aggressiveness of the sidewall on the m/t tire. if i go down to 33s will i be able to run this tire? if i can run 33s, do i still need the leveling kit? i would definately sacrifice an inch of potential lift for a far better tire. i really dont want to / cant afford to anyway replace my rims.

otherwise i think the Toyo O.C. ATs in 35s which are not near as aggressive may be my only option.

anyone know? again, sorry for bringing the dead back to life....

yup, mods should sticky this thread and rename it "How to put 35s on your F150 4x4 the right way"

would have saved me hours of searching and reading.

Grubrunner, if your still around, you the man!

Medic, soon as i get mine on i will add pics to this thread.
