I think that is has more to do with his rim width. Several folks on custom offsets have the 305/55/20 setup with level and don't rub (on 20x9 rims). Squatch has 20x10 and that's the only conclusion I come to for the rubbing. I could also be completely wrong 😂

Nah. I have 20x10" rims too.

Yeah I lost about 1.5 - 2.0 MPG which is what I expected. I was averaging 19 - 19.5 with stock set-up and now averaging about 17 - 17.5.
no offense but i call bs lol. i have just about the same setup and am averaging 13-14 in the city.

What incentive would he have to lie? What gearing do you have? If 3.21s, I could see the mileage not dropping all the way to 13-14 in your example. If 3.92s, then absolutely. During an extended test drive of a stock 1500 Laramie with 3.92s, I could do no better than 17-18 mpg at 65mph on the highway. Granted this wasn't a broken in engine, but still, I don't see it getting much better.

I have the Fuel Rebel wrapped on 33'' Duractrac and they don't rub. Truck is not lifted either. My offset is +20 though. I kinda hoped i would find em near 0 because i would want just a tiny bit more poking out, but it's alright.
