04 F150 Supercrew. Has a 3" level on the front. plans for wheels and tires are next, but im tryin to figure out what backspacing i should use. i'll probably run a 11.50 or 12.50 tire, so i don't mine them sticking out a little bit, but then again i don't want half the tire sticking out. I'm not looking for as big as i could go, just a good tough stance. any ideas?

 

A 9'' wide rim with around 5'' backspacing and some 33x12.50's would be the safest bet

You could also do a 9''wide rim with somewhere really close to 5.5'' backspacing and some 295's that would look good (295/70R18 or 295/70R17)...would need to do a little trimming but it would look great

 

Yeah, I'd suggest a 9 inch wide wheel with 5 to 8 inches of backspacing.

 

I have 8 1/2 inch wheels running 34x11.5 Toyos with 5.3 inches of B.S.. Take a look...







They're 11.6 inches wide which means they handle better on winding roads and have less rolling resistance than the 12.5 inch wide tires...
