Tire wheel sanity check. 20x12 -43 offset

[Jokersreven9e]

2021 Laramie. Have stock 20x9” now., no lift at this point but considering Mopar 2” to keep my 8/125k extended warranty (Zeigler for the win). Would like to get the bushwhacker pocket flares and have them color matched, along with new tires/wheels simply because I love the look.

My fear is that the flares will make the stockers look small, plus not a fan of my rims.

Would 20x12 -43 offset even fit without rubbing or trimming with stock height and wheel liners? Looking at the Pirelli Scorpion AT. Any thoughts on impact to ride? I’m mostly highway/suburbs for now. I’d go with a bigger lift and bigger tires, but I’d prefer not to lose too many mpgs at this stage. I’ll care less about mpg later when it isn’t my daily driver.

Multiple posts/pics because I don’t have VIP to load more than one pic. Sorry.

Did fuel raise their prices for wheels?!?... $500/each for a 20x12 seems really high for a 20" wheel... I paid $1150 brand new for my 20x12 fuel mavericks a couple of years ago that I had on my 4th gen...

Aluminum prices have gone up I imagine. Covid, tariffs on imports, someone sneezed and offended someone else’s delicate sensibilities.

But yeah, crazy right!?!?

My local Ram dealership always has these modified trucks on their lots. I think they're pretty sweet but more than what I want to spend for an already expensive truck.

20x12 -44, 35x12.50 on a 6” lift. Ride is fabulous probably due to the coil overs. I think your right about the flares on the stock wheels. Don’t think the rims you want would be a problem bigger tires would be your issue with no lift.

Yeah.. Dealerships screw you over BIGTIME with those pre-built trucks... You can build the truck for way cheaper than what they mark them up

Exactly. When I saw it I was like yeah I’d rather build one up my self and have the pride in doing it and do exactly what I want to do. The truck is cool as hell tho.

Nice rig!

I have 20x12 -44 offset wheels with 285/50r20 tires. Stock height in the front with zero issues rubbing.

Thank you, as someone else stated you can build a truck way cheaper than buying a built truck from a dealer.
