backspacin on my cragar's?

[Mopar It]

well i went on summit and ordered the good ol' 15x8 5x4.5 black soft 8 rims. didnt check backspacing or anything figured they'd be fine and i mounted my 33x12.50 swampers on them and honestly my tire sticks out a good 3-4" from the fender, is this right?

4" backspacing should not stick out 3-4" past the fender.

measure the backspacing to make sure they are 4"(that is what it says on the link you posted)

 

[Mopar It]

yes those are the rims i bought

 

[Lowrange2]

But DO they have 4" back spacing. What size are your tires?

 

[Mopar It]

33x12.50's.

 

[Lowrange2]

Ah, that looks about right... I'd show you a picture of my 35 12.50s on 15x8s but they aren't mounted yet...

Also, if you had flairs they wouldn't be sticking out any.

 

[Mopar It]

yeah i know, just wondering if it seemed right. time to start choppin fenders

 

[ricot83]

ya that looks about right without flares. thats what mine look like and I have the same wheels

 

[TheDiabetic]

hahaha i did the same thing!
i think it gives a nice stance though. atleast from the front. it looks meaner.

 

[Mopar It]

oh dude i know it looks ruthless.

 

[CaliGold]

I think it looks damn good.

 

[slcpunk74]

ruthless... well it looks good now cut the thing(more) and wheel.
Honestly that looks like a really good bs to clear those tires.too much less bs and I would be worried about hacking too much to clear.
