Currently I'm running 285/50 r22s on a 9.5" rim with 35mm offset. I'm going down to a 9" wide 20" with 18mm offset. I have no rubbing at all now and no trimming has been done. Also have 1" clearance to upper control arm as of right now. So my question is if I could fit either of those tires with no rubbing? Thanks, Sent from my iPhone using IB AutoGroup

You're 4wd right? You shouldn't have any issues. My 275/60/20 (33.0x10.8") didn't rub at all on my 20x8.5 wheels with +18 offset when my 2wd was unleveled and untrimmed. So yours should be fine with a little wider and little more aggressive tire.

Yup 4wd and what I believe is a 2" level

With a level, you're golden. At worst you'd have to trim a little, but I doubt it

Here is my 4wd truck running 20x9s +18 offset, wrapped in 33x12.5/20 Toyo M/Ts, unleveled. Cleared everything fine.

Lots of wheel gap.

I have 295/60-20 Trail Grapplers now that fill the wells better, but run on angled turns. 34x12.10 measured out.

I would assume that the upper control arm location and all that fun stuff would be the same or very close in a 2012?
