Wheel Backspacing
Sorry if this has already been covered, but I couldn't find what I needed.
I have a 99 lariat flareside. I've got my new grill, lift kit, headers, and a few other parts already ordered. The only thing I haven't got now is the wheels. I'm currently running 17's and love them. I plan on going up to 37's on the tires, but am currently with 33's. So my question is, to be safe with the 37's what would you guys suggest on the backspacing. between 4.5 to 5.5 inches. The lift is a 5 inch rough country, and I'm also going to crank the torsion keys. I do expect to do some trimming, as well my truck is 4x4 so it does sit a bit taller. Id like the wheels to stick out a bit, but not more than an inch and a halfish.
