wheel question from Baghdad
I'm over in Baghdad right now as an Army contractor, so I can't quite
call up discount tire and ask them. Thanks in advance for your time.
I have an 03 tj rubicon, 2.5" old man emu lift and 1.5" body and
engine lift planned. What backspacing will I need to run 305 75 R16
goodyear MTR's without rubbing or losing my turning radius. I want to
keep them as close in as possible, but have no problem running
extended fender flares to cover the rest.
Thanks again for your time - keep our soldiers in your prayers.

Re: wheel question from Baghdad
While I'm not sure of that 34" tire's exact with, I suspect it's near 12.5".
If so, 4.5" or less backspacing is the most backspacing you can run with. I
run 35x12.50 and 4.5" was the most backspacing possible for that tire...
same with the 33x12.50 tires I used to run.
