5in backspacing .

[WhiteTtype989]

No notch with rolled lips . Has anyone tried a 15x10 5in bs. with a 295/55/15 (27.8x12.50). small spacer if needed, is this doable without a notch with that tire

I'd guess you'll have to use at least a 1/4" spacer, but you might get a rub around corners. Go with a 7/16" spacer, and should be OK. And use these ...

Yea tried the 4.5 bs . and didnt care for the look its a little to far out for my taste . Had alot of clearance with the frame rail with the 4.5bs .

notchy notch time.

then run 5.5" on a 10" rim.

I ve got 28" x 12.50" mt sportsman on 9" rims with 5.5" backspacing-had to use a 1 1/2" spacer for them not to rub the frame-like the look! I will be trying a set of the 295 x 55 x 15 mtdrs after I sell some wheels to get some new mts.

 

[WhiteTtype989]

Yea the tucked look looks good. Im gonna give the 5in. bs a shot . Hoping I can keep the spacer at or under 7/16's with the 295's .

If you have to use a 7/16" spacer with a 5"bs then you re only 1/16" from the wheel with the 4.5" backspace-think about it-sounds like you contradicting yourself.

Mine are 17x9.5 with a 5 in b.s. and an 1/8th inch spacer that wasnt really needed..No notch...

 

[WhiteTtype989]

True on the 7/16th's spacer . Turboc87n what size tire are you running ?

That will never work without at least a mild frame notch. I run a 295/50-16 and had some issues with clearance on the frame. That was with a 9.5 wide rim, and a 4.5 backspace. I run a billit .250 spacer as well. Tire is 12.2" wide at the sidewall. Does not rub now, but had to notch it at the critical areas.

Yea gonna go with the 4.5 bs . And be done with it .
