More wheel questions
I'm thinking about getting these wheels
http://www.4wheelparts.com/PDT64287.aspx
and some 35x12.5 tires and was wondering if there will be any clearance issues with the control arms, fenders, or bumper with just a leveling kit. I wanted a wheel with a little less backspacing but it seems like most wheels have around 4.5" and I'm afraid those would stick out too far and possibly rub the fenders. Thanks.

They should fit just fine. They only have .25inch less backspacing than stock wheels and are only .5inch wider. Without a leveling kit I think they would rub pretty good on the control arms, but I think with a leveling kit they would be fine.

It will be close, you will definately need the leveling kit. I know that 315's will fit awesome after a leveling kit, not so sure about the 325's (35") tires.

Most 35s don't measure 35" but some do. My 315s are 34.4" - again not all 315s measure the same either - and I don't have a leveling kit and they only barely rub if I'm turning really sharp and going over a bump at the same time.
