What To Do Since The Wheels I Want Don't Fit!

jsciaretta · January 3, 2011

I really like the KMC XD SERIES Diesel Machined face... however i have factory 20's with 275/60 and and going to go with 305/55 or 295/55 tires. But the wheel stated only comes in an 18x9 or 20x10.

Now i dont mind 18's but i like the little bigger wheel and i think it would look awesome in a 20".

The 20x10 i can only find in an -24 offset which i believe (based on the 20x10 rockstar) is 5" backspacing... I do not think that i can fit these on my truck with either tire with a 4-6" lift

any comforting thoughts or ideas how to run this wheel?

I am most likely going to go with the 18x9 w/ 5" backspacing and 33x1250 mudd grapplers

A 33x12.50 will rub on a +18 offset. On a -12 or -24 you are going to need a 6" lift

Thats roughly 4.56" backspacing and they won't fit. I would look for something in the +18 and up range to minimize the chances of rubbing.

Unfortunatley all i see available is -24....

Ahhh sh!t

Here are some for your consideration. (Keeping with the XD black/machined look).

20x9 XD Hoss (+18mm Offset / 5.71" Backspacing)

20x9 XD Addict (+18mm Offset / 5.71" Backspacing)

The black/machined Hoss looks gooood. IMO

I like the Hoss Machined... Good sub for the diesel since they do not make what i need.

I forget what lift you have but those wheels tires are going to rub HARD with just a level kit. I had like +30 BS XD wheels with 305/55/20s and it rubbed really bad it was miserable. (thats kinda how i ended up buying a suspension lift in the first place.)

If you only have 2" of lift I would go 305/50/20 and pray for the best.

Same size tire if you have 3.5" of lift. (2"+1.5bl)

If you have 4.5"+ you can safely run the 305/55/20 at a +18 backspace w/o trimming metal. Some people don't like it, but its just the way she goes
