searched the forum for answers first but most of you guys rum lifts or large offset wheels. i have a 2015 f350 crew long box. going to install readylift stage 2 leveling kit. have narrowed tires down to 35x12.50r18 or maybe 20". my question is i dont want to run flares and am looking for the tires to barely stick out past fenders. some have told me 0 offset with a 20x9 wheel but from what i have seen that might stick out more than what i want. thinking about a +12 or +18 but havent found much pics on this setup. looking for thoughts and or your pictures of your set ups. also i will be hauling a slide in rv truck camper so i have heard that 20's would be the way to go as they have less sidewall flew and very comparable payload to the 18's.

20x9 0 offset will stick out about an inch.

The +12 will be exactly flush.

20 inch rims tow better on 35s

Shouldn't rub. I had 295/65/20s on 20x10s with a -12mm offset with very minimal rubbing on the inner fender liner with 2 1/2".

20s will flex less for sure and 35/12.50/20s on a 20x9 with a +12mm offset should be about flush with the fenders.

Do not go with anything positive offset. You will end up rubbing the radius arm at full lock. +0 is where you want to be if you don't want them sticking past the flares.
