back spacing (1 Viewer)

[rideglobally]

i have a thread on the "expedition build" forum but i though i should post here. my question is what is a safe, reasonable, not too much stress on the bearing, back spacing for a 10x15 steel wheel. my cruiser is very heavy 8000 pound, i want to wided her tracks for stability. i am thinking 3 to 2.5 inches. is this too much? thanks

On my "light" cruiser I have 2.5 and so far so good. Besides it's mostly a "slow mover" right?
