Annnnnd I thought of another question, would you say your tires are aligned with the fenders or do they stick out past the fender?

Yes I am sticking out about an inch more than I wanted. I wanted to do the 20X9 wheels but it doesn’t look bad. 

 

I took a picture for you for you to show

Thanks for the pic, I think it looks great and with lifted trucks the wider stance is my preference. so it gets my vote

The kit itself does NOT increase track width though correct?

No the kit does not give a wider stance. With stock tires & rims on, they were still sitting in the same place as stock.

Your truck looks nice! Do you think you could have ran a 35" tire on the stock wheels with your lift kit?

I appreciate the compliment.

 

you know that is a great question, IF I didn’t have an agenda for the stock wheels & tires and not wanted to do a black wheel then yes, I do believe that I could have wrapped the stock wheels with 35’s and rolled like that.

I'm a bit surprised it was a wheel problem to be honest. I have 18" Fuel wheels on my AT4, and have no problems with clearance. And I'm at stock ride height.

What type of Fuel rims? They told me the Mavericks would fit and just a small selection of 3 others, but they did not appeal to me.

6” BDS Lift

Fox 2.0 Shocks

35 X 12.5 X 20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers

20 X 9 Moto Metal Shift

Looks great!  I can't wait until they offer some lift kits for the Trail Boss.

It really depends on the angle of the spokes on the rim.  I am running a different Moto 20 x 9 wheel and they clear no problem.  The calipers on these 19s are much larger than the previous gen.

I agree.

I have the Fuel Mavericks, but they gave me a handful of options for choices.

Glad you found some that work!

That brings up a question I had, @Big E in TX, do you know what specifically didn't work out with your original wheels? Was the wheel touching the caliper or the tie rod end, or something else?

The wheel was touching the calipers and would not spin.

I just did mine with a pro comp 6inch lift. My wheel setup is 22x12 -44 offset and tire size 35/12.50R22 minor trimming done
