RRW 17x8.5 0 offset w/ factory BFG KO3 on Foutz 2.5" Perch Collars

[Johnny 5]

Relations Race Wheels RR7-H 17x8.5 (0 offset) with the factory BFG KO3’s 285/70r17. I added the Foutz Motorsports 2.5” Perch collars. No cutting of any kind required. Zero rubbing.

Forgive me, I'm still learning all this stuff. The stock wheels have a -55 offset. You have new wheels that have a 0 offset, which means your wheels poke out of the wheel wells 55 mm more now, so now you have to lift the truck 2-1/2 inches with these perch collars so your tires dont rub on the wheel wells/fenders, correct ?

Sorry, all this with the stock tires as well ?

Stock wheels are +55 everything else you said is correct. Not sure how much lift is needed to clear the new offset/tires I just knew I wanted a 2.5”.

I love the look ! Any issues with the tires throwing rocks at your paint ?

2.5” still has 1” of rake

Oh ok that rake definitely threw me off since Foutz posted that 2.5" would be near level with no load in the bed.

No issues with my paint getting chipped.

Honestly the side steps seem to be excellent "mud flaps"

Beautiful looking build. Question for you or others like us who have added the collars. With Adaptive headlights, do we have to make headlight vertical adjustments ? Or will they automatically adjust with the 2" lift up front. Greatly appreciate all replies. JJ

Do you think it would be possible to run this width and offset without the front lift?

I think its going to make it more likely to hit the crash bars, not the top of the fender.

I have 2 in spacers and the automatic vertical adjustment needs recalibration. The headlights now have a mind of their own and articulate vertically far too frequently.

I just installed method wheels with zero offset. I'm second guessing my decision though they look great in thinking the fenders are going to bust out when I land a jump. Have you jumped yours with this setup?

I think that's why they put them there. Definitely don't look good though.

I am playing catch-up on this thread, so this very well may be answered already.
I just picked up my 2025 RR last week from the lot in Pittsburgh, and drove it home nearly 500 miles to Indianapolis.

The very first thing I did was toss in 2” Bora spacers. Stock wheels/tires, no lift installed, and the fitment does works. It’s the stance I wanted. I will say, with the wheels fully turned there is no rub. HOWEVER, if you were in the trails making a sharp turn with the suspension flexed, I believe you certainly would rub on the crash bars. For now, she is a pavement princess till I get her wrapped, so no worries on the rubbing for the time being. I will be installing perch collars of some height to give me clearance from this scenario though, hence how I found this thread as I am doing research on which height I need and any cons that may be associated.
