Ranger raptor 2024
Hello
I would really appreciate if someone can assist me.
I am planning to change my bead lock wheels for my ranger raptor 3.0 model 2024 which has a +55 offset (as far as I know from google search) with method wheels 17X8.5 with ZERO offset.

Would this change in the offset will affect/damage my suspension, handling or performance in road or off road on short or long run ?

Thank you again

Wheel offset, the distance between the wheel's centerline and its mounting surface, is important because it affects how the wheels and tires fit in the wheel wells and how much space is on either side of the wheel. The correct offset ensures that there's enough clearance so that nothing rubs against the vehicle's body, brakes, or suspension. An incorrect offset can cause a number of issues, including:
Safety
The wrong offset can reduce vehicle stability or interfere with braking. For example, if the offset is too positive, the tires might rub against the suspension or inner fender, and if it's too negative, the tires could stick out from the body. Both scenarios can lead to safety issues and prematurely worn-out tires.
Performance
Incorrect offset can impact a vehicle's handling and performance in several ways, including:
Acceleration: It can hinder propulsion.
Braking: It can lead to longer deceleration distances or accelerated wear on brake pads.
Tire wear: It can cause uneven or quicker deterioration in the tires.

0 offset is going to rub. HARD.
+30 is the minimum recommended if you are changing wheels.
stock ford wheels are +55mm , the ford beadlock are +35mm

Here’s a RR with 17x8.5 +0 with stock tires shown. 2:45 for size/offset and 9:15 for clearance shown.

It’s tight clearance on stock suspension at full lock. You will have more clearance from suspension components and mild poke. Scrub radius is negatively impacted.
