Wheel offset opinions and Level question
First off, I have been reading threads all day about wheel sizes, offsets, and tire sizes. I'm pretty sure what I have picked out will work, but just wanted to put it out there...
Ready Lift 2.5 leveling kit, with XD 20x9 +18 wheels, and Toyo Open Country A/T2 295/65r20 tires. I don't think there will be any rubbing issues, and that wheel/ tire combo should have me sitting almost even with the wheel well. Thoughts?
Also, for those of you that are currently running the Readylift 2.5" kit, is the truck pretty damn level, or is there any rear rake left?

I have also been reading everything i can about this and stumbled upon this site...

My biggest concern is also keeping the tires in the wheel well and it seems the +1 Fuel's will do the trick.
Not sure if anyone else agrees with this calculator but it helps demonstrate the offset.

That looks great! Do the tires hang out of the wheelwells? Do you possibly have a pic from the front? What size/backspace/offset are your wheels? Sorry for all the questions!

I had 1/2-3/4” rake after ready lift (now have Carli coils, etc). I have the same size wheel and same size tire. Absolutely no rubbing, no trimming anywhere. The tire is not even close to rubbing anything.
Tire is essentially flush with the wheel well, maybe 1/4” out. Perfect IMO.
Readylift kit is up for grabs (sale)

Since you ask....
I think trucks that have the tires sticking out of the fender well look terrible. Of course that is a personal opinion but obviously fairly popular to do. I just can see slinging mud, rocks and road debris all over the side of the truck. No offense intended.

Best photo I can find. I thought I had -12, but looking at the chart on Fuel's website, it goes from +1 to -18. Shop said this is as far out, and wide as I could go without rubbing (with just a level kit).
