Well I didn't plan on running them because of what everyone has said but I put them on to see what it looked like and they only rub at full lock when turning left.

May I ask what it is rubbing on...springs, fender well? Would the tires rub if you were running the factory size that came on the rims...275/65/20 (34.1" tall)

Ur rig looks great.

For my tastes, that Super Duty 5 spoke wheel is the best looking on any vehicle. Going to put them on the '05 that I buy next month.

I cannot disagree! They are simple and classy. I wish they were a simple bolt on and go.

Don't you have to get spacers or something? The spacers would kick the tire out enough to end the rubbing, wouldn't it?

Yea those sure don't look like 35s to me...what size are those tires again?

I am running the same wheels with 275/65-20 Nitto Terra Grapplers that on math are, like 98GP said, 34.1" tall but are slightly taller than that due to the tread depth. Each tire will be a shade different. I am slightly rubbing at the front and back of the front wheel wells. At the middle of the fender liner in the back and at the edge of air dam at the front. I am on 2" spacers so that is extending the effective fore and aft reach of the tread "corners."

I'm currently running a 2012 lariat (20x8 et40) with the stock 275/65r20 tires. I also have an add a leaf in the front WITHOUT spacer. I rub the leaf springs with left and right turns I can turn the steering wheel about 1 and 1/2 turns in either direction before it rubs. I bought it set up this way. I'm ordereing a set of Fuel Hostages 20x10 et-12 black with a brushed face.

Less than an hour after I bought it.
