Will these fit?

Im looking to buy American Racing ATX slot wheels size 18x9 with a -24mm offset. The tires id like to go with are a 33x12.5 and id like to know if this package will fit a 2003 f150 4x4 with a 3inch lift from adrenaline motorsports it consists of 3in blocks for the rear, a spacer for the front shocks and after market torsion keys. The stock wheels and tires are looking to small.

Yes. But I hate to tell you that you wasted your money on that lift. You could have cranked up your OEM torsion bars for free and not destroyed your ride quality.

Yea it didn't take long and had to replace the CV boots, so I did New half shafts dumbed down the keys and got an alignment. The angle is much less severe and I will post how long everything lasts. But yea aftermarket keys are not the way to go.

-24mm offset is a lot. You would probably only need -12mm or 0 offset to fit 33's

They only come in -24mm, I do have three inches of lift but my biggest concern is that they will rub

The farther the rims put the tires away from the truck, the more chance they will rub the fenders. But with 33's and a 3 inch lift, they shouldn't rub

If you're only going up to 33s with 3 inches of lift, then they won't rub at all. Or I would be very surprised if they did

those are going to stick out like 3 inches. i personally do not like that look but to each his own. i got a lot of great advice on here before i bought my rims. i went with the 18x9 Chrome Hostage, -12 offset and the 325/60/18 Nitto tire on my 03. They fit perfect and are not sticking out past the fenders. i don't have a lift and just cranked up the torsion bars as stated by Wandell. Only had to trim the front valance a little. i couldn't be happier with the look, it was exactly the look i was wanting, even the wife likes it. wish i knew how to post a pic on here.

make sure you post a pic of yours when you get it done. pics with details is a great help to others trying to decide.

The wheels on the 97-03's are really tucked in. You have to get into 12 inch wide wheels before you wind up with the wheels sticking out of the wheelwells on the 4x4's. 4.5 inches of BS is your best bet.
