You may have to click on the pic of the Outlaw II wheel to see what I am talking about.

I am guessing that it is part # 62-5783, but I don't understand what that 3 3/4 means. Is that backspacing?

Also, should I be using a 10" wheel with 32x11.5 mud terrains, or should I be using an 8" rim?

They work but with backspacing. I used 15mm.
Otherwise they eat the rubber boots on the steering knuckles.
I have them! And just for show had them polished to a mirror shine! grinpimp: No pics of that though...

Is the 15mm backspace some sort of spacer you have to buy or is it a different rim?

Also, are you using a 10" rim? I would like to use one if possible.

Basically I am trying to figure out if I can use American Racing Outlaw II part # 62-5183 (this is a different one than the previous post, that one was a 7" rim).

This rim is a 15x10, Offset: -38, Backside: 4, whatever that means.

Sorry for all of the questions, but I want to make sure I get something that works properly the first time.

no need to appologize!

It is exactly the rims I have, 10" x 15". No clue as to what the "backside 4" means, but there is no options in the backspacing, so you have to use spacers like I did. I used some cheap ones and longer wheel bolts, not the best way to do it IMO. Below is a pic of a better solution.

I hope it helps, otherwise ask again!

Thanks for the clarification on the rims. I don't know what that backside 4 nonsense is either. Where can I get spacers like that?

A lot of the vendors announcing here sells them, I would suggest checking them. Click the IH8MUD.com - Support our Advertsing Vendors and start supporting!

Maybe we can get some of the more knowledgeable cruiserheads to chip in on the "backside" issue?

I have 3 15x7 and 1 15x10 Outlaw II's on my 62 and they all rub the boots on the tie rods. Not sure on PN, the 15x7's were on the truck when I bought it and I don't remember the 15x10.

Mickey Thompson Classic II 16x8 3.625" back spacing fit fine. About 1/2-3/4" distance from the wheel to TREs.
Part #368412*

Confirmed - just put on a pair of these - they fit fine - plenty of clearance for TRE and calipers. No spacers needed.

I'm runnin MT Baha MTZ's 33x11's and it's a great package...
