I would advocate for a 6"....I did a 2.5" level and 10" wide and I rub at full lock on inclines/angles.....-18mm

so you have 4" more of rim then me plus whatever the heck is been thrown out by your backspacing...I'd say 4" lift is real tight fit at full lock

Ok so I'm deciding more on a 20x10 wheel. Can someone explain to me how much a 0 offset vs -24 offset will stick out. Just ordered my 2" leveling kit. I want them to stick out more then tuck in.

2" level will rub if you go with anything in a more negative offset, on 12.5" wide tires...If you do 20x10s and 2" level stay with 0mm or -12mm


I have -18mm and rub on angles at 3/4 turn, with a 2.5" level

Fine style, will they stick out past the fenders at all with the 0 offset? Or will they be flush? I still want it to look aggressive but doesn't have to be crazy. I'm assuming the -24 will eat the fender then since your at -18

Remember 12 mm equals to about a 1/4" So if my math is correct You'd be sitting a good 3/8" inside more then mines/side, which your track width with x10"s would be under an 1" shorter then mines. 24mm is 1/2" out more. I'd say it will still look very agressive. Theres times I think mines are bit too far out and gives it the hot rod look.

I'm pretty sure you can run a -12mm and get away with minor trimming and m/t tires

You could probably get by with 6" and x12's on 33's, it'd be damn close though. Mine rubs at 8" but I'm running 2" spacers, but it only rubs on the rear of the front fender liner in reverse..... hardly ever rubs going forward.

I think 12s are out of the question as much as I like them. I think I'm going with the machined rockstars or fuel throttles. I'm partial to the rockstars now because I saw them on a white truck and really liked it. Ended up just ordering a 2" level which I will be putting on shortly. I've got my indash, high flows, sub box, tires all sitting at the house. Just trying to figure out the rim situation. If I go with the rockstars it will be a 20x9 and if I go with the throttles it will be a 20x10 -12 offset. They only make the rockstars with -24 in a 20x10.

No rock stars please. They are way too common. Any other wheel will be better in my opinion.

No ones running the machined rockstars I've only seen them a few times in person. But the throttles do have a perfect offset and I looked more into the rockstars and they are 8.5" wide so I'm not a fan of that.

Ok so I'm torn between two wheels. The other wheel I found is a 20x10 -24 offset. Fine style you said you rub at full lock and incline, could I still get away with minor trimming on this setup with a 2" level? Anyone else have input?

On daily driving I think your good. I can see you rubbing on plastic at 3/4to full but trimming and how much your willing to is the question. I wish I would had gone to a -24 because i really want a lift and dont want new rims yet

The problems you encounter will always be inner fender so what you can do is cut some steel, re-install plastic liner and zip tie it back so you dont rub. OR switch to a 2.5" level? the 1/2" does help
