I have been doing research for the past couple hours on what rim and backspacing combo will keep my jeep legal with the use of Bushwacker's flat style flares. I live in Utah, so tire coverage laws are pretty strict. So before i buy i would like to see what you guys think. What i am looking at is a 15x8 rim with 3.75 backspacing, and some 33x12.50's. Will the backspacing of 3.75 inches be enough to keep the 12.50's tread covered by the bushwackers? Any help is very much appreciated! thanks!

 

Exactly the same set up I'm running works perfect. 4.5" of lift, Flats and 33x12.50r15 on 15x8 wheels 3.75 backspacing

 

Well I have dick cepeks on mine with a 4.5 back spacing with 33/12.50/15s. They only stick out at most 3 inches passed stock flare. So by losing 3/4 of an inch in back spacing and having the wider flares on there on there it should cover fine. Good luck man

 

Thanks guys, i appreciate it. Thats what i wanted to hear, so it looks like ill place some orders!

 

Hey by the way i love your jeep!

 

Thanks appreciate it
