Default Re: H2 and 40's ?

No-one mentions anything about the backspacing of the wheels. Doesn't a smaller backspacing push the tires further out, and therefore helps to avoid rubbing? If I were to get the FabTech lift, what backspacing would I need in order to avoid rubbing with 37 x 13.5 and with 38 x 15.5 tires?

Thanks for your quick reply. What size tires do you think look ok with a 6"lift? Has anyone used 1 1/2 inch spacers like these to push the tires out further?

STAY AWAY FROM SPACERS!!! I have personally seen a failure where the wheel came off the vehicle and rolled away!!
If you want width, get a wider wheel tire combo or a more offset wheel.
Mine are 20x12's with a 15.50 tire, they stick out a good 5 inches.

That truck looks good! I added the fender flares to my truck and now my tires don't look so wide. Bummer!! I thought the fender flares would look good and they do, but now my truck don't look sooo monsterous.
