Default anyone with 31" Duratracs, 15x7 3.75bs, 3" Lift

anyone with 31x10.5 Duratracs, 15x7 wheel, 3.75 bs, 3" Lift... or something similar. I'm about to pull the trigger on new wheels and tires and want to see how much they'll stick out with 3.75 bs on a 15x7.

thanks ahead of time

If you still have stock flares, not much. Maybe an inch.

I'm thinking 1.5" since I'm sticking with a 7" rim but changing backspacing from 5.25 to 3.75.

I don't think it will stress the bearings since i'm also only changing the centerline by 1.5".... anyone?

Just afraid they may look weird... anyone have any pics? I'd really appreciate it. thanks

Cool, What size tire and backspacing? 6.5 is a lot higher than mine but I could still get something of an idea how much they stick out.

Anyone with pics? I went though all like 30+ pages of the lift/tire setup thread last night and not enough backspacing info to find anything solid.

I hate to be such a pain I just don't want to order them and then be upset that they stick out too far.

thanks in advance!

Haha, Not at all man, I'm definitely the one being a ***** on this one. I'm normally pretty patient I just had a blowout last weekend and jeep has been sitting. I need to order everything by Monday and I've started like 4 different trie/wheel threads on various things and have all my questions answered besides this. I'll take a deep breathe and check back in a couple hours.

I'm sorry... and no this response is not to just bump my thread back up.... ok maybe subconsciously it it.... damn it!
