(first time post) I have just ordered a 2.5in leveling kit to install on my 2004 fx4 crew. I really like the eagle alloy series 079 wheels in a 20x9. They have a -12mm offset and a 4.4666 bsm will they fit my truck with the nitto terragrappler in a 325/60/20 with minor trimming or possibly a spacer? If not I am also considering same wheel and tire but in a 305/55/20. Also thinking about going with the OEM 20" and the 325/60"s... What do you think??? Thanks

 

I would go with a 305/55/20 with the Eagle wheels. I think that 35's on a truck with only a leveling kit looks like it's to much stuffed underneath. JMHO.

 

You can't fit 35's with that wheel and only a leveling kit because of the width and shallow backspacing. Go with a 305/55-20 (33x12.50-20).

 

I agree... 305/55/20 look good anyways.. that what i got, leveling kit and Toyo's

 

With the 2.5 level could I run 325/60/20's with the XD Hoss wheel? It is a 20x9 with 6.18in of backspacing?

 

Yep, I think you could get away with that, prolly will still have very slight rubbing though, just barely is my guess. It looks like on a 20x9 6.25" BS would be equal to stock and yer talkin bout gettin 6.18" BS and thats very close, less than 1/10". That combo is what I would get!!! The xd hoss wheels look pretty damn good (gettin the chrome, right?) and I think you will be pleased with these wheels and the 35's. Cant wait to see pics

just my opinion,

Must really want an economy drop, 325 is wide!

 

I have been also looking at the 079 Eagles with the 4.46 inch BS in an 18X9 wheel (yes, they will have this size out within a few weeks). I have figured with my 2 inch AS and a 3 inch body lift, a 35X12.5R18 would work out great. I have calculated that the wheel with stick out about 2.5 inches past stock, so will this still be a problem with the AS and BL?

BTW, I would have figured that 6.25 inches of BS would lead to some rubbing issues on the front. The stock wheels are 5.5 inches of BS, right? I am also assuming that the BS numbers would not change with respect to the rim width, as this is always the distance between the inside lip to the mounting surface of the wheel.
