Greetings everyone,
I apologize for the delay on following up on this. We wanted to make sure we had everything sorted out on the wheels before I provided an update. We've installed the 20x10 offset wheels with -18 offset. This is the wheel you saw on the Granite TRX here.
After installing this on multiple vehicles we found that there is a seem on the front of the trucks that this rubs on. There are enough production tolerances between trucks where this may be an issue on some trucks, but not on others. We had some In-stock trucks where this would cause some slight rubbing on the driver side of the truck and not the passenger side or vice-versa. There is an inner fender liner on the trucks and behing that liner is a body seam. Depending on the truck there would need to be some "massaging" of the seam with grinding/hammer/spray paint in order to make it work 100% perfect. The extent of which would vary depending on the tolerances of the truck as we received it.
We want to deliver a truck that is without issue to our final buyers, so we made the switch to a 20x9.5 with a +15 offset and have yet to run into an issue with the same 37" tires on the trucks. We found this issue is resolved with this wheel offset and no longer necessitates work on the inside of the body seam that the 20x10 wheels do. Pleas see pictures below.
Again, My apologies on the delay in getting this information out to you, we went down the road of trying different tire brands, trimming, etc. to make the 20x10 wheel work, but ulimately thought this would deliver the best most consistent product. With people from all over the country purchasing these trucks. We want to do our best to make sure they are as trouble free as possible.
