I have a question that maybe someone can help me out with. On a 2020 I Just got a set of Fuel Rampage D238 2 piece wheels 22X12.5 with a -44mm offset. Nitto 315 tire (35) with RPG leveling kit on middle setting 1.5" The tire rubs majorly on the bottom inside of the wheel flare and wheel liner. I do not want to raise the truck because my girlfriend is 5'2 and drives it mostly. Also I heard that raising it affects the active suspension settings. . I saw a picture of a 2020 with a set of fuel 1 piece wheels that wasn't lifted and and looked like the flare wasn't fabricated. From what i could see from the picture it looked like a 10" wide wheel. I can cut my flare and push the wheel well back and plastic weld it that's not a big deal at all. I was just wondering if there may be another option with the wheels I have currently. I don't want to get new 10" barrels and have them rub also. I will just fabricate these. So here is my wheel its kind of hard to tell because its on the lift and the suspension is traveled out. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.IMG_3352.jpg

Yeah don’t think you will have many people help you with that, not many of us go that route of modifying here.

I had 12” on my last Raptor with 325/50/22 tires and we trimmed the fender liner and some fiberglass behind the liner and never had a rubbing issue after the trimming. We didnt trim anything that was structural or anything related to the firewall. Just get behind the fender liner with a grinder and slowly trim until you dont rub anymore.

I think the stock offset is +34mm, you’re -44 with those wheels. I’d say you’re looking at modify wheel well or other wheels.

Factory wheels are 8.5” with a +34mm offset. Yours are 12.5” wide with a -44 offset. I would try another 8.5” wheel with at most a 0mm offset to avoid rubbing.

Going to take major trimming to fit those.

Perhaps aftermarket front fenders with a 2-inch rise and 2-inch run will make things easier.
