what wheels are do you run on ur jeep with 33s? im about to put a 4in lift on and and get 33*15*12.5 tires but idk if i while have enough backspacing withouth rubbing. i was looking at cragar soft 8s with 4in backspacing or possibly 4.75". i now i am giong to have to trim my fenders but will the tires rub without getting spacers?

 

less backspacing the better. 4" might work but i would go with a 3.75" thats my preference. because stocks are 5" i think. and if you go with 4.75 on a 12.5 wide tire you will deff rub. so my plan is to go with a 3.75 when i get my 33's.

 

alright thanks. i didnt know if more backing spacing was good or bad but now i know. lol

 

they dont have soft 8s in 3.75 only 4.0

 

these are. dont know if you wanna go with this type or not but kinda close. http://www.4wheelparts.com/Wheels/Ro..._pn=PCW52-5865

 

these soft 8's are a little bit more. http://www.4wheelparts.com/Wheels/Ro..._pn=PCW98-5865

 

also if you dont want to go with a wheel that will stick out farther you can do a wj lower control arm swap. they are "S" shaped so you can fit bigger tires in there with out rubbing. there is a write up on it on here.

 

Are you looking for DD wheels, or wheeling wheels? If you will be wheeling it Mickey Thompson's Classic IIs are about the best for wheeling without going to beadlocks.
( really hold the bead good )

 

Ya with 12.5'' wide tires I would definitely go with 3.75'' backspacing.
