Ordered a new truck!
Hello all,
This is my first post as I am new to this forum. I just recently placed an order for an f250. It's Oxford white with an Adobe interior, XLT, super cab 8 foot bed, 4x4. Fx4 package, camper package, snow plow prep package. I'm super excited, this is actually my first new vehicle I will have owned! It was also be a big step up from my current '92 standard cab short bed f150.
Moving along, there is one modification that I want to do to the truck when I get it and that would be wheels.
I really want the Fuel Hostage wheels in 20x9 with a +00 offset with 305/55R20 E Nitto Terra Grapplers. Truck will be stock height, I do not want to mess with putting a leveling kit on the truck yet. I'll mess with suspension once it outside of it's warranty.
I was wondering if this package would be too aggressive. Should I go with a lower offset? I've seen this rim in +14, +18, and +20 offsets as well.
NOTE: The tire size noted above is almost exactly the same overall diameter (1mm Taller) as the stock 275/70R18 tires that will be coming on the truck.
TIA

So would you say the +00 offset is too close to the - side then? Maybe I would be better off with a +14 to +20....
Thanks!

Welcome and good on your new truck.
As for offset, sage advice, stay as close to the OEM offset as you can.
Your only slightly taller tire should not have a major effect on its performance. What axle gearset do you have?
