2021 F150 295/70/18 tires on +20 wheels?

[McCarthy]

Guys need some help here, I have a 2021 Platinum with a 2" bilstein level. I put a set of 295/70/18 Falken AT3W's on a set of 18x9 fuel wheels with a +1 offset, they rub pretty bad on the fender liner and are extremely close to the front bumper. I have to decide today if I try a different offset wheel, or a smaller tire as the truck is sitting at the shop. They'll swap the wheels or tires, but not once it's been driven on. Need my truck tomorrow.

Can anyone with a 295/70/18 confirm if there's any rubbing with a + 18 or +20 offset?

From what I've read and seen in videos the offset is what's killing you right now since you have a wider 295 tire. I would say go as least aggressive as possible to avoid any rub. +20 should work but cant confirm.

Check out this set up. These are 22 inch wheels 285/55/22 with a +12 offset and it fits, I punched it into the calculator and your set up is the same 34.3 height but you're slightly wider at 11.6 versus their 11.2, again this is at +12 offset so I'm assuming with a less aggressive offset (+18 or +20) you should be fine.

Here's another video, this one is much closer to your set up with this being a 17 inch wheel and +1 offset. Punched it into the calculator and if you get a 285/70/18 you'll have the exact same fit as the truck in this video. Looks like the offset isn't the issue and it can work but you would have to use a 285/70/18 instead of the 295. It will be close though, so either use a less aggressive offset or a tire that isn't so wide. Hope this helps!
