6.32 backspacing on a 4x2 w/a 6" lift?

Is anyone running an 18" rim with 6.32" backspacing on a 4x2 with a 6" lift? Or, does anyone know if it can be done without having to use a spacer?

Thanks!

-Chris

You will not be able to use these..With a 6"lift you want a 4.5 backspace and -offset to clear the suspension. WHy would you want to lift a 4x2?

If you put in a 6" lift tires will hit the wishbone if the wheels are over 4.5 backspace.... Trust me I know! I have a set of mojaves sitting in my shop that would be perfect for a 6" lift.....They stick out 87mm from the stock wheel and I went with an american eagle alloy that will work with a 2.5 leveling kit..178 18x9 that stick out 60mm from stock IMO the mojaves are way cooler but I don't want a 6" lift..60mm is bad enough without a lift but the 87mm is perfect with the 6" lift......I only wish I knew this before mounting tires on the mojave's.
