Aftermarket Wheel offset question

[EG7047]

Hi all,
I am getting ready to order a set of wheels/tires for my ST and had a question regarding offset. I am looking at Blaque Diamond BD-F18 in 22x9 with 275/40zr22 tires. My question is the stock offset is 37.5 for the 20" wheels with 255 tires. The place I have been speaking with is quoting a 22x9 wheel with +15mm offset. I dont have a lot of experience with wheels. Would the offset be specific to the wheel or should it be closer to the factory 37.5? What would be an ideal offset as I dont want to mess with the factory fitment and ride quality. I did locate a calculator and looks like +35 may be my best bet. Thoughts? Thanks in advance

Have you checked on Tirerack? There are some tire options for 22" tires.

Yes, I looked on there. The wheels are +30 through +38 offset for 22x9 which is another reason I am concerned about the measurement on my quote. It is possible that it is a miskey but wanted some input from folks who know better than I before I answered the quote.

+15 is gonna stick out and when you turn it will rub up front. You need to stay around + 30’s
I’ve been looking also. There’s not a lot of room in the fender well. There’s a member on here that went 24”x10” with 285/30/24” tires. He said no problems with rub

Run that chart with a +15 offset.

Yeah, +15 sticks out ridiculous.

Hey guys

I called my buddy just to double check my offset my wheels are 35mm offset 24 by 10 niche for tires I went with a 284/30/24 nitto 420
It looks tight under there but no rubbing. Hopefully that’s still the case when h and r finally releases a spring lol

Yours looks great! Do they stick out a little bit? You got a pic down the side to see offset? Stock is 37.5 offset

Looks great. How long did you run on stocks before going to the 24s? Notice a big difference in performance/ride? Can you post some side shots so we can see how they fill the wells?

I read the stock 20” offset is 44.5mm. The 21” is 37.5. Just an FYI.

24 by 10 niche with 35mm offset
285/30/24 nitto 420s tires

the ride is actually a bit better with the nittos I suspect because they are soft hahaha I will keep you guys posted on how long they last
There wasn’t a lot of options in a 30 profile

I love those wheels but man the wheel gap is huge with those tires.

 

[mruff1975]

I know lol. Steeda told me they are releasing springs and sway bars in the next couple weeks. I have my fingers crossed

Can you post some pics? I’m trying to see what a 22 or 24 x 10.5 looks like. I also would like to see the 20x 10.5 or 11 looks like.

Howd you paint all the black trim? looks good!

 

[mruff1975]

Ford body shop sanded and painted it for me. I looked for a wrap which would have been cheaper but we couldn’t find a blue that was close

The dealer did it or an authorized body shop or something? How much did that cost?

 

[mruff1975]

My dealer has an on-site body shop. I had the truck for a few months before I had it painted. It cost me roughly 2000.00 US to have the work done. I think they spent quite a few hours sanding down all the small dimples on the flat black panels.
