Tire/wheel fit question.

Tire/wheel fit question.
Hello,
I'm new here. I've looked all over and haven't had much luck figuring out if certain tire/wheel combos will fit or not. So I'm stopping by to ask.
my setup: 2013 F-150 Supercrew cap short bed FX4. Stock suspension, with FX appearance package. 20x8.5 with 275/55r20s
I have 0 interest in modifying the suspension to include leveling. I previously owned a lifted 01 Jeep and it was a pain to upkeep. So I'm interested in what will fit with 0 modifications to the truck. Here are a few tire/wheel setups Im looking at.
Any help in determining what will fit without any rubbing and modification will be extremely helpful.
All tires are based off Nitto Grappler G2s
18x9.5 w/ -19 offset. 235/60r18s
18x9 w/ 0, -12, or 18 offset. 235/60r18
20x9 w/ 30, 12, 18, or 0 offset. 305/50r20
20x10 w/ -12, or -19 offset. 305/50r20
I know the 305/50r20 will be closest to stock height wise and 325/60r18 are the tallest. Any help would be extremely helpful in narrowing down my decision lol.
I like the idea of a wider tire, but I also use my truck to tow on occasion. I also make long road trips from time to time. This is also my daily driver. So any tips on what would be a better tire size that doesn't kill fuel or capability is also welcome.
Thanks all,
Josh

Tire Clearance
Hey Jbhawx,
Regrettably, the list I'm about to share only ranges up to late 2000's decade but I found this chart incredibly useful in general for these situations. It's a list that 'offroaders.com' put together of all truck tire clearances (stock, with fender trimming, with suspension or body lifts, etc.). Maybe you could even contact them about updating their list because I'm sure this information has saved a lot of people headaches:

Cheers and best of luck,
Matt
