Got my Rough Country 3.5" lift installed, need advice on wheels/tires

[Celtic Sun]

Installed my 3.5" lift the other day and I'm really happy with it. Now my Laramie's stock 20" wheels and tires just look bland. I'd like to get new wheels and tires but wheel/tire stuff is new to me. I'd like the tires to sit flush with the fender flares up and I'd like to not have to trim anything. Rough Country says the lift will support a 295/60r20 but that is on the stock 20" wheel. They could not give me any advice for after market wheels/tires.

I'm looking to run Nitto Ridge Grapplers, just need advice on the offset for a 20x9 wheel and tire size to achieve a flush with fender flare look that doesn't require trimming on a 3.5" lift. Thanks!

You will not achieve flush on 20x9 with aftermarketfender flares, if thats what you have...the flares stick out at least 3"....your best bet with flares n flush would be no less than 10" wide rim, unless you are interested in adding 2" hubcentric wheel spacers.....great call on tires!!

Sorry, I guess I should have been more specific about the gender flares. I meant to say that they are the factory installed flares.

I've got Nitto Ridge Grapplers (295/60/20) on my stock wheels - just like they have in their photos on their website - I think it looks awesome! My truck looks exactly like the one they have on their website, except it's Maximum Steel.

I'd run a 295/65r20 with that setup .

I have the ReadyLift 3.5" lift w/ Nitto Ridge Grapplers (295/60R20) on 20x9 Fuel Offroad Mavericks with a 0 offset (stock is around +19).

They are pretty flush - I actually wish they stuck out a little more. Note: I have a Laramie with the stock fender flares.

I have fuel 20/9 with good year duratracs 35/12.5/20 The offset is 0 so they are almost flush

do you have any scrubbing at all?

 

[Tat2GirlAz]

Yeah a little bit at full lock at the bottom of the liner but I've been too busy to trim it up.

I’m on 20X10’s -19 with 35X12.50 Toyo Open Country tires and more than happy with them! On a 3.5in lift I think they’d have a mean stance but not too exaggerated.
