I just had my new tires and wheels installed. The tires are BFG KO2 A/T 285/70R17 and the wheels are Vision Fury 8.5x17" I think they fit nicely and don't stick out too far from the fender, probably an inch if that much.

Good looking setup! What’s the offset of those wheels?

+25mm. I didn't want to push them too far because it causes tire scrub when turning. There is plenty of room behind the wheel/tire and it doesn't protrude too far from the fender.
Yeah, that looks great. The red in the wheels makes the graphics on the truck "pop"... and vice versa. Your set-up is the first black wheel I think I've ever liked.

So no rubbing issues? How much of a lift?

I wanted to do a black/red color scheme and I found these wheels. I also ghave my Raptor grille ready to put in this week and the grilles is black but the FORD letters are black face with red surround.

It's an Icon stage 3 lift... they come preset at about 2.5" and can go to maybe 3.5". Not really sure, but I think the lift is perfect as is. The nice thing about the Icon's with the UCAs is there is 35% more front wheel travel, which you do not get with a straight lift kit that uses spacers. As far as rubbing, just be sure to trim enough off the intrusion bars. I'll take some pics tomorrow to show the clearance now that the tires are mounted.

Thanks, the fit looks really good!
