BacK spacing
« on: Feb 23, 2012, 02:53:31 PM »
I am fixing to buy tires and wheels and need to know which wheels to get. I am either running the q78x15 or the 34x9.50x15 tsl or the 34 inch ltb. I want 15 inch black rock crawler wheels and need to know what back spacing to get and what width of wheel, I am thinking 8 inch. The truck is an 89 solid axle.

for those choices I would get the 15x8 with 3 - 3.5 inch back spacing.  does it have spacers on the front??

Not sure about the backspacing; but if you don't go wider than 10.50", you can use a 7" rim
