A LITTLE less Bling!

Ok, from the American Racing website, They list that wheel as:
Size - 20x10
Offset - 0
Backside - 5.500

The tire is approx 13" wide, what's your opinion?

You should be fine, just know that they are going to stick out a bit farther and they MAY rub on full turn, depends on your rig.

I'm not very experianced with changing tire sizes on vehicles from OE sizes
Where, per say, do you think they would rub? Front fenders? Inner wheel well?

Most likely they will rub the back (closest to the cab) of the inner wheel well in the front. The back, outer corner. Be careful becuase it can cut your tire as well as possibly rip the inner lining out. If it is minor you can always turn the torsion bars a half crank or so, not much more

You won't come close to the front of the wheel well

FGHT ON, I can't thank you enough for all your advice. You've been kind to share your knowledge and experiance with larger tires, and it's appreciated. I will post pics as soon as the wheels arrive. Hopefully they'll turn out great!

Regards,

No problem, I'm so glad I could help. I know how it is to see all these rigs on here and know there are so many people with more knowledge than your self currently has and no one is willing to help. TRUST ME, there are more on this blog not willing to help than the few that are. I had the same problem when I was trying to customize my rig as well. So what did you decide to go with, I'm sure they will look great?

Well I'm just glad I was told about this site, and then stumbled upon your thread!

I went with the rims you see above in a 20x10. I've changed my mind many times on tires, but I think I've narrowed it down to just two, both of which are available locally. So when the rims arrive, I can hopefully choose the tire. Tires are same size, 325/60/20, BFG A/T KO (same as oe, but larger size) and BFG M/T KM2. Aesthetically, I'd go with the KM2's no question, but I've got no idea if I would like the ride quality. I've never had mud terrains before.
