Well they wont work perfectly but wont they work?
If you like lug centric wheels then sure. I prefer hub centric with no added rings.
Proper wheel fitment has been covered here and on FB so many times I’m just not inclined to keep repeating the same things for the umpteenth time. All the info is a short search away.

I love these wheels but can only find them in +40mm. How would they fit?

I’m sorry, I am new here and don’t know proper etiquette I guess. But thanks for your time!

Love our 22’s. Went 22 when I found out the aviator runs them. The wider wheel makes the stance much better I think too.
What wheels did you go with?

If you don't plan on lowering it (I don't), is there any reason to stay at the 30.7" max diameter? I was actually thinking about going with 21"x10.5" with 315/40 rubber, which would be about 30.9". I know 22"x10.5" with 305/35 is the popular choice, but I actually want a little more rubber on there for a little bit softer ride, but also since I don't plan on lowering it "fits" better than the 22" option (at only 30.4" tall, there is a bit more gap between the tire and fender).
What’s the offset?

22x10.5 +32 offset. Tires are P-zero 305/40. Not lowered, yet. No rub and as you can see the best wheel on this forum.
Pretty badass! I’m getting the same size as well here soon. I plan on lowering it as well, but I’m not sure if that will work on this size of tire. What are your thoughts on your setup with steeda lowering springs?

Im on 22x10.5 +32 with the Toyo Proxe 305/40.

I am lowered on Steedas and in reverse and turning, I do rub the front wheel wells.

Maybe once when I hit a nice bump at higher speeds i possibly heard it rub somewhere as well but otherwise no issues.

Anyone know if fitment is the same on the Aviator vs Explorer ST?

Welcome to the forum.

Fitment looks to be the same, see below. Do some measurements or talk to a wheel manufacture to make sure.

Start with picking a wheel width...then you can figure offset from there for how you want the wheel to fit the car...further in or out. For OD stay at 30.7” max.
I run a 30.4” tall 305/35 on a 22x10.5 at +30 offset. This is as far as you can push a wheel out and be flush with the fender...and it’s IMHO the perfect fit for these especially with a drop. View attachment 3977
Hello, im a new member and i love your wheel/tire combo. Where can i buy these wheels and tires in your exact setup? Preferrably in a package mounted and balanced.
Thanks

Those are custom wheels that you won’t find with mounted and balanced tires. Specs are 22x10.5 +30 wheels. Vossen, Velgen, Superforged are very popular choices.

Offset is too close to struts. They should make some +30 or +32 offset wheels in that model I thought which would work.

No it’s not. +35 is fine and gives a little room to spare with a 305/40/22.
+30 is closer to flush but fit is fine with +35

I thought the link he had was for a 22x10.5 with +40 offset. My fault.
