You want wheels with a NEGATIVE offset then. I have 0mm offset on my truck and they look a tad sucked in on the back, but the 35's help.

If you can get over the fact its a Ford I'm right about at 8' wide. But take into account, I also srw'd dually F450 diffs. But I sure do love 'em wide.

6.0! Get a 12 valve under that hood quick before your post gets deleted!

flush is always better, saves your paint and if it's wider than the wheelwell there is always mud on the paint.

Ive got a hot 12v for it. Same 12v I had in my '97 dually crew Chevy previously and '95 dodge before that. Or the 600hp twin turbo 24v in there too. Don't worry I've been around the block once or twice. Or hows the saying go......
This ain't my first rodeo son.

And I've learned that no oem makes a cummins "holder" that's good enough. So I have to build my own.

Wheels I'm goin for are 16x8 cuz I cant run 10 inches wide withe these tires im gonna run. Either 265x75x16 or 285x75x16 or 305x70x16. So I wanna know what offset I'd have to go for to get the tires to be flush or stick out a bit 8) Maybe if I have to add some wheel spacers :/

315's on 16" rims.

stickin out looks sweet as all get out. but like mentioned above, your truck is always dirty cause they like to grab and fling. and then of course you may scratch the paint.
if your truck has a not so hot paint job, rock the wide dude

Flush is best for clearance.
Sticking out is also illegal in most places.

in utah that truck with those tires wouldn't pass safety inspection

Good thing I'm not in Utah then 'eh.

The 4.5" cutout flares ...... "almost" cover the tread width. Not quite, but almost. We don't have inspections here. I could get a ticket for no mudflaps, bit I haven't been pulled over yet in this truck.

I agree, also the sand and road dirt scratch your windows when you roll the up and down.

156324, nice looking F. Be careul about swapping engines. Here in California there making us smog our diesel pick ups. It's only a visual test so we have to put our cat. converters back on but those who have swapped out the junky 6.0 for a Cummins are having trouble passing smog.
