I plan on replacing my stock wheels and 245/75/16 mudders with some new ones. I'm wondering exactly wat sizing on the wheels to go because I am not too familiar with backspacing and what not. I plan on getting the black cragar wheels and 265/75/r15 mastercraft a/t's can someone help???

tire and wheel section, this has been posted to death

If you are set on running 265-75s then go with a 16X7 with 4 inches of backspacing will not rub that way ( as much) but you will have to do lots of trimming, also you know mileage and power will drop as well

A 265 width tire should be mounted on a 7" rim. Less likely to blow a bead than with an 8".

Moved to the correct subforum.
