Looking to upgrade to some 20s on '12 FX4

I am a newb when it comes to backspacing and offsets and could use some help. Looking to upgrade to some 20s with a 275 60 tire. I dont have a leveling kit and no plans to add one. Really liking the MB TKOs (here) or the Raceline Rampage (here). Any insight as to how these would fit on my 2012 F150 FX4 would be greatly appreciated, how much they stick out of wheel well or in, etc. Or any pics of your rides with black 20s. Also accepting any suggestions. Thanks.

The 275x60x20's are 33x11 and would fit best with the stock Ford wheel's on a stock height 4x4. Any aftermarket wheel's would have to close to the Ford spec's 20x8.5 with a 6.5 inch backspacing.

Sorry, but Im not really following your reply. Are you saying these wheels offset/width will not work or this size tire will not work on this size rim? What is the stock 20s offset/width etc? Would I be better off with the stock size 20" tire? I forgot to mention in the first thread that we are currently running the factory 18s. Thanks for your patience with me. Planning to order some in the next week or so.

Called discount and they said the offset is +25 for the tkos. Found american racing Trench rims in a 20x8.5 with +30 offset that I like as well.

These two offsets would work with 275/60s. I have 275/60s with +32 offset and no lift, and no rubbing at all, and there have been a few on here to run 275/65s on a stock 4x4 with no problems. Both of those will stick out just a little further than stock, around 1/4"-1/2" more.

I don't take many pictures, so this is the best one I have and it was getting dark during the pic. I can go take some more side pics today if you want me to.

Thanks for the help fellas. Ordered the TKOs and ended up with Cooper ATPs. Should be here by the end of the week. Can't wait!
