Hey guys,

I bought a 2014 ram 1500 a few months ago, its got a leveling kit, truck sits about 2" higher in the front. was thinking about putting 33's on it with some 20" wheels on the truck, maybe with a -18 offset. You guys think it will rub?


Wheels are 20x10 -18 offset
Tires are 33/12.50R-20

Wanted to get some opinions. Possibly some pictures of some set ups and if yall have or had any rubbing issues.

Thanks

17x8 with 20 mm offset and 1.5 inch spacers no rubbing at all with a leveling kit (not the same offset or wheel size but just showing my set up for comparison)1585030dabd45777926e0f7236cc16bd.jpg

Hey I really appreciate it! Keep them coming! I'm hearing from two different places two different answers on rubbing or not on that setup. Custom Offsets said I won't rub but Rimzone is saying I will. Rimzone does have the better deal on the particular rim I want. So I don't get it, but really appreciate you guys showing me the set ups!

My truck is level 2" higher. I'm probably gonna with the 20X10 with the -18 offset and wrap them with the 33x12.50R20

My set up.
20x10 wheels-19 offset
285/60/20 General ATX tires


That's bad ass man! I'm not sure what these people are talking about! I was gonna stay with my current tires 285/65/20 but they said I would rub with the 20x10 -18 offset, now they aren't that aggressive looking tire anyways they still have good tread, but it didn't take much to convince me anyways lol

You definitely gave me hope though! Appreciate the pics!

What's up guys! Sorry for the way late follow up, I've insanely busy! Anyhow wanted to show you guys the after details of the truck, I went ahead and added grille and lights too. I know this thread was geared towards some uncertainty as far as if the 20x10 with 33" tires and -18 offset fits with a leveling kit and I must say absolutely freakin yes it does! No issues at all. Full lock, reverse forward there is no rub at all! In fact I wonder if I should have went with 20X12 LOL

But anyhow, I'm happy with it and just want to say a big thanks to you guys for the help and pictures of yalls set ups!

Now on to my next project!

No rub! Took it to King wheel down the street from where I live, the guy actually told me I might have a rub, it will cost extra to shave it, when all said and done he said I didn't realize those are 20x10's not 12" so your good on the no rub !
