Will it rub?

I've ordered a Rough Country 6" lift for my 04 4x4 SCrew. I'm leaning towards the Bronze XD Hoss in 20x9 but they only come in -12 mm offset (so I'm told). Tires will be 35-12.50's or 325/60's. I haven't picked them out yet but I'll probably go Terra Graps, MT ATZ, or Toyo MT's. Will I have to do any trimming? I assume the plastic mud flaps will have to come off.

Thanks

What backspacing does that translate into? If it's between 4.5 and 5.5 inches I doubt you have to trim.

Yea its 4.5 backspace. I wanted more but I'm pretty sure the xd bronze 6-135's only come in that offset. I hope they look good on my white truck.

Here are 20x9 KMC Hoss rims with 4.5" BS and -12 offset, but in chrome running on 305-55-R20 (33x12.5) Mickey T ATZ's with a 2.5" level. I had quite a bit of trimming to do, but you should be clear on a 6" lift. You just have to remember the further the wheel sticks out, the more the wheel will travel back and forth when you turn. At full lock i rubbed both front and back of the front wheel well plastics turning right and left.

Yea F ast, I've seen your pictures. Your truck came out very nice, are you adding fender flares? Hopefully I can avoid adding them, I don't plan on driving on much gravel.

I'll definitely get some pictures in the next couple weeks. I'm also considering something like the Saleen grill painted the bronze color. I have a chrome surround though so I'm not sure if that would look right.
