All depends on the wheel specs you go with.

For example a 20x9 0 offset wheel won't have as wide of a stance (won't stick out as far) and won't give you any issues with turning. A 20x10 -24 offset will have a wider stance and will most likely rub when trying to turn sharp.

How far are you looking to have them stick out? I can recommend a wheel size/specs based on that to give you a setup that will achieve the look you want and work well altogether.

Just to clarify, a 35x12.5x20 tire on a 20x10 wheel with -24 offset should not have any rubbing issues on a 6 inch lift, correct?

The wheels I'm looking at are 20x9 with a -12 offset. ATX Artillery. I don't mind them sticking out a little, say 1-2 inches but no more than that.

With a 35x12.5 tire they'll be sticking out past the fender around 2". With a 37x13.5 they'll be out around 2.5" past the fender. If you have OEM flares they provide 1" of coverage so you can subtract 1" off each of those numbers.

6" lift w/ bils maxed out on 20x10 rims and 35x12.50r 20 trail grapplers

Do you have any vibrations? How many miles have you put on the lift, and have you had any issues? I can't decide between BDS or Zone. It'll be a payment princess with the occasional mud puddle, NOT hole!

Thats a lot of work to just play around with since you would have to take it completely out to change the height. I would assume with "the top of the line" lift kit it would come out leveled .

I know the kit itself does NOT make the truck level. It makes it stock, aka about 2" of rake maybe less, everyone's is different. It does come with their own 'leveling' but it's not a true level.

There's multiple pictures of people who I just do the lift and it's a stock look.

I also just had a 6" pro comp lift put on my '15 2500..I went with 35s. I like the look. Could 37s of fit? Yes. But 35s look just fine as well.

The 37s look better for sure. But to be fair, its just an overall way better wheel/tire combo than the 35s IMO.

The small atx wheels are :supergay:
