how will this setup look?

I have a 2008 XLT scab 4x4 and the setup that im planning to put on it is A 2.5 inch leveling kit, 20" American eagle 079 and 305/50/20 Cooper Zeon LTZ. These wheels are -12 offset and 4.466 BSM. Wandell informed me on a previous post that the wheels would stick out 2.5 inches farther then what the stock OEM wheel.

Will the wheels look awkward out that far?

Any pics?

I think that comes down to personal preference. I think a truck that has a taller suspension lift looks good with tires that stick out a little. However on just a leveled truck I prefer to see tires/wheels tucked or flush.

Like I said its personal preference, if you like the look of a tire sticking out go for it.

These are my 305/50/20 Zeon LTZ's on factory 20's with a 2.5 level. It should give you some idea if your wheels are going to stick out farther.

Big Smokey and F_ast have some XD Hoss with the same setup you are looking at. I also have them on my lifted truck and they stick out a little too far for me.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Well put.
