I have 2 16.5 by 10 inch wagon wheels that i cant use. 4.5 backspacing and 8 lugs

Does anyone have some 15x10 inch wheels they are willing to trade?
Preferably 4.5 backspacing.
 
what tires you putting on those? i'm trying to finalize my back spacing for the 8" i'm going to get for my 33's on three" lift. i don't know if i can keep from trimming with just a backspacing change. sorry i can't help with a swap though.....

35x12.50's

Go with a 2.5 backspacing.

i ran stock height and 35's with no trimming. I could even flex it until the tire hit the top of the fender well.

thanks for the response, but now i'm confused......i used to run 2.5" lift with 35's and i had to trim a good bit. that was with a stock rally. :confused: is my memory really that shot?

Not sure. I've never run the rallies on mine. But they're only 7 inches wide I think.

I just cut the corners out behind and in front of the tire. There's a thread on here with a bunch of pics.
 
i got my brain cells down to a manageable level now and either they're lookin for each other or fighting :D, but won't 2.5" backspacing put the wheels way outside the fender? i would swear that the new trucks are like 5" and go all the way in and hit componants. the steel rallys are 4" backspace and the stock alloys are 7" wide with 3.5 bs i think.....or thought anyway. now i gotta go check :rolleyes:
