backspacing question (Rim help)

Ive done some searching and havent really found a clear answer. I found a great deal on some eagle wheels. The only problem is they have different spacing. 2 are 3.75 and the other 3 are 3.25. i know the 3.75 will fit, but will the 3.25??? They are 15x8. If they will fit im gonna jump on it, all 5 for 120.

Sorry wrong post.

Aloha, Mark
 






They'll fit and if you do get them I'd put the 3.25" on the rear. The only problem is when it comes to rotating your tires. The 3.25" will put a lot more stress on the front bearings.
 












Which wheels would you guys choose on your trucks??
