pattern 5 on 5.5 , backspacing , most people like 2.5-2.0 backspacing with an aggressive , large width tire..:D :flipoff2: :nuke:

Talk to me guys..would a 3.75" backspace wheel work with a 31 or possibly 33" tire? I have 31s now...would go to 33s eventually and imagine be quite awhile before I go past that.

Just saw some on the sale section so wanted to check with the experts before committing

no, i run 15x8"s with a 3" B/S on 31"s and they are very close........when i get my 33"s i think they'll rub.......

I would suggest a 2"b.s no mater what size tire you choose to run. I personally like the slightly wider stance.

The 2" spacing is the way to go even on 31x10.50
With a springover and missing links I still rub when getting into tight places but just enough to let me know.
The tires standing out also help keep the body away from the rocks/dirt etc. (Just don't turn left when going thru water):D
