The Cragar Soft 8's are 16x7 5 0n 4.5 with 4" Backspacing, the Cragar V5 is 16x7 5on4.5 with 4.5" Back spacing, so woulnd't these be a better fit for the Libby? Thoughts? Advice? Anyone running the V5? :JEEPIN:

depends on lifted or not, what size tires, type of tread, and a few more things.
But in "most cases" if lifted then yes

In a typical set up, 2.5" lift-245/75/16 Federal Courigia.

I was thinking that the 4.5" backspacing would be better than the 4" Backspacing dur to the factory BS being 5.5"

Most all use the 16 X 7 with 4 inch backspacing as you know, minimal rub on the sway bar etc with that size and back spacing
really the difference is not that much but I would think thats where your problem will be ( rubbing on the sway bar when fully turned )
