I have found a good price for rockcrusher American Eagle rims but they only come with this backspacing. Will 3.625 backspacing work on our trucks? I have the 2" keysways in front and 1" inch blocks in rear. I was going to go with Trxus 33 or 34x16x12.50 tires. Any thoughts?

Buy a set of H2 wheels for about $250, and run the 33X12.50R17s.

With 4.5" backspace on 16.5x9.75 rims with 12.5" tires the tires stick out about 1.5 inches so, if this rim is an 8" wide rim I would say a 12.5 " wide tire would stick out 1.5-2" outside the wheel well.

I don't want to be the ginnie pig? I guess if I rub I could turn the torsion bars.

I do not like the hummer rims unless they are chromed. On ebay the cromed H2 rims are 800 dollars.
