will 20" BMF's with nitto trails fit on leveled FX4

pretty sure I made a decision on the wheel package I want, just want to make sure it will fit

just put a 2.5" level on my truck

was thinking of going with the 20" BMF Novakanes with nitto trails I have a price of 2850 for the package

what I'm wondering about is the tire size should I go with 295/60/20 or something else

also if you might know where I can get a better price please let me know

The 305/55/20 will definitely fit a leveled 4wd, unless super negative offset on the wheels. Pawpaw had the terras that size on stock wheels without level and didn't rub.

Either tire should work great. Looks like more companies offer the 305/55/20.

As long as it isn't a -12 offset it will clear up to 34" in height and the absolute max width would be 12.5". I have 33x12.5/20 with a +18 offset and they are a quarter inch from the upper a arms. Unleveled i clear them at full lock by a half inch.

just talked to my wheel guy and he said his BMF distributor says they only make the novakanes in death metal at 20x10's now with a -19 offset

is that true ?

I wanted 20x9's with 0 offset, it seems everyone else is using that size

I talked to a guy about these wheels and he said they were made in both 20x10 and 20x9 still. I want to know if the 20x10's will fit on a leveled truck. Also trying to figure out what they would look like. I don't want them sticking out to far but want an aggressive look.

Go with the 0 offset then. The -19 sticks out about 2"s at minimal, more than the 20x9. Looks awesome in some instances, but good bye door paint..

I say Nay. Been running 10s for a year now. The factory step bars do wonders. Even without step bars, The lugs are too big grab pebbles that could possibly chip the paint. Unless your down a gravel road everyday Id say you have nothing to worry about with 10". But your right they will stick out about 2" up front and 1.5" in the back

Also I'm positive you can get away with a 10" wide rim on 305/55, but It would look sick in 295/60. Maybe some more trimming would be involved.

OP at the end of it all is what do you prefer, tall tires and decent lip/rim, or wide tires and wide wheels with 4" lip and up? Thats the deciding factor for picking rim widths and offsets because the tire packages you want to try could possibly work.
