I haven't raised it yet, I think the rim makes it look higher, this pic is Monterrey in the suburb of San Pedro Garza García.

Crazy that I could tell.. Wow. I live 1/2 in Arizona and 1/2 in Sonora... but I've been to Monterrey a few times... really awesome city.

Thank you for your response.
I bought my 2022 XLT EB used from dealership(Blackout package/4k). The previous owner installed METHOD bead lock wheels, the Yoko tires and a leveling kit. Therefore I never experienced the truck in stock form. Dealership said they would warranty the previous owner's add-ons since they did the install. So far so good. The front left sway bar link is knocking. Dealership has ordered and will replace under warranty.

OP, what are the specs on those wheels? I've been wanting to pick them up for my Mav, on eBay they show and offset of +32 versus stock being +27.5 I think, I was worried they wouldn't work. Also, do you think they'd work with the stock tires?

Sure, with pleasure,

these are the RRW specs
Size: 17x8
Offset: +32
Bolt Pattern: 5x108
Load Rating: 2100 lbs
Center Bore: 63.5 mm (hub-centric )
Backspacing: 5.76"
TPMS compatible

I'm not sure or if not someone can correct me, the original size of the tire is 225/65/17, the original Ford wheel is 7" wide, in the RRW it is 8" inch more, if so it would not fit or it would stretch too much which could damage the new wheels if you decide to buy them.

I hope I have resolved your question

regards!

Thank you for the response, your truck looks awesome!

According to this site (https://tiregrades.com/tire-anatomy/tire-size/min-max-tire-size-for-rim-width) 225-235 is the recommended size for an 8" rim, I'll have to do more research. I've been drooling all over my keyboard looking at those wheels on Ebay! LOL

As someone running 245's... I'd vote for the 235's too and they will be my next tire. I've always lifted and rand bigger tires on trucks, but the Mavericks sweet spot is those 235's. The 245/65R17's are the largest you can go in A/T's before things get out of hand with unsprung weight, revolutions per mile and loss in MPG's. Keep in mind that all this changes the amount of revolutions that your entire drivetrain does, so 245's only being one step is still within the "green" on most gearing charts. But 235's get it done just fine without any of those changes aside from weight compared to stock. The Maverick just isn't a Tacoma or Ranger where people are changing out gearing to compensate for the lifts/tires and it's just not that kind of truck anyways. Especially if you are in a FWD Hybrid, then there truly is no point in going higher than 235's at all. As someone who's also played that "for looks" game including on unibody vehicles, you won't even truly notice the difference being a quarter to half an inch overall, but your wallet will.

I am happy with my 245/65/17 as seen in the photo, it looks great that it even makes it look taller, in my very particular point of view that is the measurement for those RRW wheels

Thanks for the post! I have the FWD Hybrid so I'm not interested in AT or wider than stock tires. I just want those sweet wheels! LOL
