I've noticed that a 17x9 wheel with 0 offset will list 5.00" of backspacing, while a 17x8.5 wheel with 0 offset will list 4.75" of backspacing. So I think your math makes sense.
There are some helpful calculators on this website: https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/
Looks nice. Can you post a picture showing where the skid plate stops relative to the rear crossmember? Trying to see what (if anything) is left exposed. I'm not planning on hardcore trails, but I would like more protection than the factory plastic skid plate.
Any chance you guys will make top plate spacers that provide less than 1.25" of leveling? When my truck is delivered, I'd like to raise the front a little bit (0.5"-0.75") but still keep some of the factory rake. Thanks
Nice looking truck! Could you post up some pictures showing the tire poke on the rear tires? I'm leaning toward the same tires with Method wheels in a +25 offset. It might just be me, but the Falkens look wider to me than other tires that are the same size.
I know the title of the video says resonator, but did he delete the resonator or the muffler? I swear I can still see the resonator in the video just before the tailpipe.
Is there seriously no remote start from the key fob without the connected services? I can live without remote start from the phone app, but I'd want to be able to remote start my truck from the fob.
I live in the PNW and drive an F150 just fine in the backwoods, but it really depends on your definition off-roading. In my F150 I'm only driving on forest service roads. If you're doing actual off-road trails then a fullsize is going to feel real big. My buddy travels thousands of miles a year...
I ran a set of black Pro Comp wheels on my 2012 Tacoma and constantly had issues with the paint bubbling and flaking off. I had to touch them up a ton.
I'm currently running Method black wheels on my 2018 F150. 112k miles and no paint bubbling or adhesion issues. I have scratched the wheel...
Has anyone found a way to disable the center JBL speaker? I test drove a Tacoma with the JBL system and it sounded like the center removable speaker over powered the front door speakers. I'm no audiophile but it made the soundstage seem off to me. Anyways, can the speaker wires be disconnected...
The 8" fits the size of the dash and truck a lot better than the 14" does. Just my opinion, but Toyota should have split the difference with a 10" or 12" screen and only offered one size. With the size of the bezels around the 8" screen, I think they could have squeezed something larger in the...
What size tires are those on the KMC wheels and can we get a picture showing how far they stick out from the fenders? I've always loved the deep dish look of those KMC wheels.
I think Westcott Designs did a video showing that 35x12.50 on a +25mm offset had around 1.5" of poke. I think it's this video, but I'm at work so I can't watch it to confirm:
