Moto Metal 951's and Fabtech 6"

Hello fellow f150 guys. I have an 04 white 4x4 supercrew. I have done my supporting performance mods and will be doing my lift around income tax time. I have read through many search posts, but wanted confirmation on backspacing issues. I have deceided on a 6" fabtech lift with 325/65/18 bfg A/T or Toyo A/T tires with black Moto Metal 951 wheels. They are offered in three backspacing options 4.53", 5.71", and 6.18". How far does each offset stick out past the fender and which offset(s) actually works with the Fabtech lift/backspacing requirement. Thanks again for all the help that you guys have offered and will post pics once I get it all done.

I believe the MM 18 inch wheels are 9 inches wide.
The ones with 4.53 inch bs will stick out about 2.5 inches farther than the oem 17 and 18 inch wheels. The ones with 5.71 bs will stick out about 1 1/4 inches farther than the oem's. The ones with 6.18 will stick out about an inch farther than the oem wheels.

Please keep us updated with the pics. I have the same exact truck, color/yr/4dr...everything. I also am going with the Fabtech 6" and the 950's or 951's but only in Chrome. Id love ot see what they look like with the 4.53 backspacing or whichever one you decide on., I will be doing the project about 2 months after you do, so please post pics of the progress.
