heyzipupyourfly · 09-18-2009, 11:06 AM

well I won a 500$ gift card towards mickey thompson prod.
So I am ordering a set of mickey thompson wheels for the rig. since i hate they're tires.

question being this:
I want to run 37s on a 4-5" lift. will the 4.5" backspacing be okay? I suck at figuring out the whole backspacing thing and what it does. thnks for the help.

If you want to stay around 4-5" of lift, you should go with backspacing closer to 5-5.5" to clear 37's.

If i go with a 6" long arm do you think the stock wheel packspacing will be alright with a 37?

i should change the title to help me spend 500 dollars at mickey thompson lol because i'm not sure now if i should buy wheels for my truck my jeep or get tires or what.
