Wheel offset question

How far would a 20X10 wheel with 4.5" of b/s and -25mm o/s on a 37X13.5 tire stick out past stock? This is on a 2008 f150 with a rize 8. I am thinking that these would stick out a bit, but I guess I could always put on some fender flares.

The stock wheels are 17x7.5 with a +50 offset so a zero offset would stick out almost 2 inches more, a -25 would stick out 3 inches from stock, then you have to add half of the wider thickness and that would be how Much more it would stick out from stock

With an 8" Rize you will want that - offset. If you look at trucks who have the + offsets the truck looks to narrow. I personally like how my tires stick out about 2 1/2"'s past the fender. Makes the truck look better.

So they only stick out about 2.5"? Thats not bad at all. I am having a hell of a time finding wheels that I not only like but will fit right. Which of these do you like better:

I prefer the eagle wheel. Alot of people are running those in the Moto Metal. It's hard to find something no one has. It can get very frustrating finding a wheel. When you go with 22's it's even harder b/c they're not many wheels with a - offset. I had maybe 4 or 5 wheels to choose from.

Go to the link posted below. It's a forum that I posted some pic's of another guys truck. He's running 38' on a 20x10.

The Eagle wheel is 9" wide. That should still work with a 13.5" tire right? It also only has a -12 offset. Shouldn't that still look ok?

It should because they're several people running 22x9.5 on 13.5 tires. The -12 won't stick out as much. Moto Metal's wheel is a 22x10 with a -18 offset. A -12 won't look bad. I think it'll give you around a 3.5" on the outer lip of the rim.
