I'm planning on pulling the trigger on buying some winter tires & rims in the next couple days. I'm planning on running 245/75 R16 tires with the Cragar Soft 8 wheels, which are 16" x 7 wide. Since they only have 4" of backspacing, what kind of issues should I expect to have with rubbing after I install my OME/Rancho lift? Am I mainly looking at pinch weld pounding? I don't want to have to do anything drastic, but pinch welds wouldn't be out of the question. |

Pound the pinch welds down just in case,better anyways.You'll have no other issues with that size tire/rim with the OME coils if you remember to add some bumbstops. |
