I'm getting a 4' superlift pretty soon and want to run a 20" wheel with 35's. My question is about backspacing. I have Bushwacker Extend-a-flares and want the tires to atleast be even with the flares. Can I go with a wheel that has 5" or 5.25" backspacing with no rubbing issues? Oh!, the tires will be 35-12.50-20. Hope I gave enough info. Any help is much appreciated.

5.25" Should Work Fine.

 

That is good news! Thank you.

 

Go up to 5.5 or 5.75 and you could run 37's.

 

I'm running 17 x 9 XD Hoss with 4.52 in of backspacing without rubbing with BFG 35 x 12.50s and 4" superlift in front. It probably would rub a little in turns in rough terrain. Tac

 

That is tempting! In fact I did want a 6" lift and run 37"s, but with diesel still on the rise I would like to keep a little money in the ole' wallet. Would it look wierd with a 6" lift and 35"s and 20" wheels. I do have flares, I just dont know if it would look right. Plus the 6" kit is only $100 more than the 4" kit.

 

it wouldnt look that badd. Go with the 4 so i can be the guy with the 6 inch one in town. lol.

 

Lol! then everyone in town could call mine the baby dodge.

 

35's looked way too small on my truck. I find the 37's look to small too tho LOL.


And my rims are backspaced 4.75 and I had to trim the fenders for the 37's.

 

I kinda figured it would look to small. How is the fuel mileage on 37's?
Sometimes I hate having options. Lol!

Nice truck by the way.
