I’m having trouble deciding if I should use my Moabs 16x8 or stock 17X7 rims for off-roading?

I'd use the Moabs for every day use and the stocks for offroading.

Not many good offroad tires available in 17" sizes. I would use Moabs for offroading and the stockers for daily use.

you can air down lower with a 7" than an 8" - the narrower rim will hold the bead better.

I will be using stock size for off road , and Moabs for the street main reason is the width of the Moabs is not that good for stuffing the tire in the wheelwell :wink:

Is there enough back spacing on my factory rims to allow a 245/70/17 tire fit without rubbing on the sway bar?

if you can fit Moab's with MT/R's under it than those 17's should fit too

with 5 inches of backspacing you will have rubbing on the fender wells when fully flexed with Moabs (depending on size of course)so stock wheels would be better , plus I think Moabs are better looking than the stock :wink:
