Wandell..another question?

you have been very helpful and i appreciate that! Anyway man, do you think it would be a good setup for my 98 f150 4x4 stock, if i did go with the setup i asked about? If you dont remember i mean the 33/13.50/17 radial iroks with the 17x9 4.5-5 backspacing? Also what is offset and what should it be?
Also, how much farther would these tires stick out now compared to my 265/70/17's that i have now with the 17.7.5 stock rims? How much would you think i am looking at price wise with this setup?

Thanks so much

The wheel size (and specs) you have chosen should work fine. As for the IROKs, they are a very aggressive tire. If that is what you need or want, that's great. If you are choosing them for looks, just be prepared for the downfalls like road noise, etc. (if they are the bias plys, they will also wander and flatspot overnight). Price of course will depend. I'd get some prices online and then check locally to see if they can price match. (4Wheel Parts will be a good starting place).
A 17x9 with 4.5 inches of backspacing will stick out 1.5 inches farther than your OEM wheels. A 17x9 with 5 inches of backspacing will stick out 1 inch farther than your OEM wheels.

Sorry, I don't. I will tell you with an aggressive mud tire it is extremely important to keep the tires rotated and the air pressure checked.
