Looking to get 11.50 inch wide tires with major backspacing

Hey guys, just wanted to pose a question to you guys. When my set of ATs wears out, I am thinking I will go with a set of MTRs or something a little more mud slingin if you will and some new wheels as well. I want to get the Rock Crawler 51 series because I like the black look. My question is can I get some wheels with like a 3.5" backspacing and be able to run 31x11.50 tires sucessfully? Has anyone got 3.5" backspacing to get your tires away from the suspension parts and been successful? Has anyone run 31x11.50 inch tires successfully? Thanks for the help!

I've got the black wheels, 4" backspacing and my 31x 9.5'just tuck inside the sides of the back fenderwells. Top clearance is fine in the back because I took out the plastic fenderwells. I think you'd probably have to trim, or add some larger bumpstops.
