mickey blues

I just lifted my 97 sport 2",tt and lost the monoleaf and added four leaf pack and warrior shackles.I need wheels and tires i wanna go with mickey thompson classic II's and BFG's mud terrains i've searched for my stock backspacing pretty sure its 4.5 iwant to run the 15" x8" MT's with 31/10.5/15 BFG's.MY questions are 1.will that fit 2.what backspacing\offset will I need to make that work. I want as wide of a stance as possible without causing drivetrain\suspension problems. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 






You could possibly fit 32s. 31's will fit stock. The 15x8s will fit fine: here is 3.75 backspacing (left) and next to it (right) is 3.25 backspacing:

Both will work fine.
