Pretty much any tire shop can order them for you too, it's more a matter of if they know they can or if they're too lazy to.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

2.5" backspace will give you a lot more width and should clear any suspension components.
