guys with 33s...

[kelly klassen]

So I'm seriously considering going with a nice package of almost brand new 33s on 15x10 Eagle 589s with 3.63 backspacing. Anyone gone with 10" wheels regret not going with 8"? How about 8" and wish you would have gone 10"? Is the 3-5/8" backspacing something to be scared of with a 10" wheel? I know they'll really be out there, I guess I won't have to worry about rubbing on the LCAs. I do have TJ flares ready to go on, about 5"-5.5" of lift right now, and a sawzall and I'm not afraid to use it, so I think I can deal with fender clearance, too. Anyone see problems that I'm not? Thanks for all your help, so far.
(Anyone got pics of something like what I described?)

I think they are 5.25 or 5.5".... not positive.. Somewhere around there.

So I have about 4 - 4.25" of overall backspacing after the spidertrax spacers.

Yah, That's what I figured. I gave up on that and have a set of 15x8 with 4" BS on order, should be here on the 5th of Jan. In the end, I think this will be the best option. Thanks for all the help. Now if only my driveshaft will be ready tomorrow...

What size wheel are you running, 15x8 or 15x10? What backspacing? This would be with 33x12.50s. Thanks.

i'm running 33's x 12.5 gy mtr's on AR 7" inch rims....like it alot...protects the rim real well and provides ex: low pressure traction. just use bead glue when installing. p.s. all types of calif. trails....
