How far do your wheels stick out?
So I narrowed it down to the wheel I want and size for my 08 F250 which is the Fuel Off-road Full Blown 17x9 in black with 35/12.5r17 BFGs. However I am not sure what backspacing to get. They come in 17x9 with 5in/1mm, 5.5in/12mm and 5.75in/20mm backspacing and offset. They also have a 17x9 deep dish at 4.5in/-12mm backspacing and offset. I drew it out and calculated it and know about how far they will stick out but if I could see it in a picture I think that would help me decide. I do plan on putting a 4.5in lift on in the future but my wife said I could only get wheels and tires from this deployment so it will be a couple years before I lift it. Could I get you guys to post up some side shots of your trucks 05 and up so I can see how far the wheel sticks out with 17x9 wheels? Make sure to throw what backspacing you have so I know what it will look like. Thanks

Here are my fuel maverick 18x9 +1 with 37x12,50's. It's about 1.5", haven't measured with a tape yet, but just right in my opinion. I need to get a good shot from the front end. And yes, customwheeloffset.com has tons of pics. They may have more pics of 18" and 20" wheels you can use just as reference.
