I'm going to be ordering some new 15x8" wheels from Summit/Jegs/4WheelParts sometime in the next couple of weeks when I get money back from school.
I've ran into a small problem. The style of wheel I'm looking at is the Cragar Soft 8 pattern in black.
Summit carries both the Cragars and a Soft 8 copy by U.S. Wheel. The Cragars are only offered in a 4" backspacing, whereas the U.S. Wheel version is offered in a 3.75" backspacing. The Cragars are $36.99 each and the U.S. Wheels are $54.99.
Jegs carries the Cragars too... can't remember the price, but again, they're only offered in 4".
4WheelParts carries Rock Crawler's version of the Soft 8 and they're around $52.99 each, but they're offered in 3.75".
I'm not sure what the backspacing is on my factory 15x7s, but I'd like to get an idea of how much difference there will be between my current stance and my future stance if I were to get the 3.75" or the 4.00". I'm currently running 255/70/15s, but I plan on replacing them with either 31x10.50s or 32x11.50s along with a TT/Shackle/AAL. If I keep my stock suspension, is there a chance of fitting 31x11.50s without rubbing? I really wish I could find some 3.25" or 3.5" BS wheels...
