I have a 2013 f150 4wd that I am lifting with a basic bds 6 inch lift. I want to run a terra grappler 325/65R18 but I am torn between using a wheel with 5"(0 offset) or 4.5"(-12 offset) backspacing. I do like the aggressive look of a negative offset but I am wondering of a 4.5"(-12 offset) will result in aggressive rubbing. Upon searching I only see older body style f150s running this setup. Anyone running a 325/65R18 on a 2009 or newer that could get give the pros/cons of either setup?

 

I'm running a 20x10 with -12 offset and have no rubbing

 

Are you running a 325?

 

325 on 5'' back space you will be ok but the 4.5 lots of rubbing

 

After doing some further research I think I'll be ok with the 4.5" backspacing. Theres a ton of guys running toyo and trail grapplers 35x12.50s with the 4.5" back spacing with no issues. Those tires are actually taller and wider then the 325/65R18 terra grapplers I want to run. I guess we'll see how she goes.

 

there 13.50 wide 325's i know i did the same mistakes before i moved to another tire and rim .... now im running 5.5 backspacing with 37's and did int have to cut a thing.

 

well I just found out a 5 inch backspacing wont work... The rims I bought (mottometal 962s) hit the tie rod ends. So 4.5" backspacing is the only back spacing that will work with an 18" wheel.

 

****ty buzz man. mine have 5.5 and they fit like a glove!!!
