Tire and rim size question

Whats up everyone? I"m new to the forum and I've been searching for a whole and i can't find what I am looking for. I know it has probably been discussed before but I wanted to know if anyone knew if I would have any rubbing issues. I have an 07 F150 King Ranch that I want to lift 6 inches eventually. When I do, I want to run a 35x12.5 R20 General Grabber AT2 on a Moto Metal MO962 wheel. I was thinking about a 12x20 wheel (I know that a lot of people hate the 12.5 tire on 12 wheel) with an offset of -44mm. I have a little knowledge of offset and backspacing but not enough to know if I would be rubbing with this setup. Can anyone give me some insight?

I did it and I did have to trim some. I have the 33x12.50 20 toyo open country m/t on 20x12 fuel hostage. I also have the pro comp 6 inch lift. Looks sweet and next time I will get 35's but I think ill have to cut more out. They stick out too much and I failed inspection for that. Im currently lookin for wide fender flares.

Did you just have to trim the front? And Inspection wont be a problem, NJ does emissions only now so the overhang wont be an issue.

Yeah the back side of front wheel wells. Just too wide. I get a lot of good comments but I think I have the only f150 that went this way here. Usually u see the set up on f250/350. They failed cause my truck is wider than 7 ft. They said I need fender flares with lights but im just lookin for wide ones.

Ok. Thanks for the info. I'll definitely be looking into the setup hopefully by the end of the summer. As for flares, when NJ used to inspect the wheels sticking out, they told me a lot of people use the black garden edging just to pass and then take it off after they leave. Just an idea if you want to keep the it without having to buy flares.
