Nice truck! Like the LED bar in the lower valence and those wheels are going to look good! I have a 2011 FX4 with the 5.0 and have loved it! I was leveled on 34s before I went to a 4" Rancho and 35.5" Nitto Trail Grapplers. Here's my baby:    Thats nice. You rub any with those tires. I got a 6 inch lift and just got 35 mud grapplers put on and it rubs a little.

Thanks! I had to trim some of the plastic on the front lower valence...if I remember right, I only cut 1" from each side. Other than that, I can rub the back of the wheel well if I am turned full lock and compress the suspension going pretty fast. I rarely get it to do it, so I haven't even worried with trimming. Appears to just be some plastic. The tire size is 295/65R20 which comes out to 35.47"x12.33" according to the specs.

Thanks man! They're Fuel Mavericks 20x9 +1mm offset. What year is your truck? I'm assuming it's a 5.0 too?

2014. 5.0. I'd bought an Ecoboost first. It sucked

Did you install the leveling kit Darryl? Local shop charges $200 labor.

Which end needs leveling? Looks level to me. I put a set of Supersprings on my wifes F-150 to help with heavy towing & now the rear is about 2" higher than the front.

May have to go with these wheels. They don't make the other ones with the correct offset.  Those Hostages will look good too. What offset are you going to be running? Not sure. What do you suggest ?

Not sure. What do you suggest ?
It really depends on what look you're going for, what size tires you're planning to run, what width wheel you want, and what size lift/level you're planning to do. Lots of factors when choosing an offset. Mine are 20x9 with +1mm offset which equates to a 5" backspacing and stick out close to 1.75-2 inches. Here's a great site that can help you compare differences between tire/wheel combinations and compare against your stock set up: Rim/Tire Comparison

I'm sticking to 18X9's. I am adding a 2" leveling kit. I don't want the tires to stick out more than an inch or less.

You'll definitely need to go with the most positive offset they make, which is +20mm for that wheel in the 9" wides. That'll be a 5.75" backspace. If you can find out what width and offset your stock wheels are, you can plug all that into that link i posted earlier and it'll tell you how much farther they'll stick out etc.
