Stupid Tire Question

[WSUCruiser]

I just want to double check that they'll fit.
I am about to order a set of 11.50 Super Swamper LTBs and a set of 15x8 steel rims (my factory ones are bent) with a 3.25 backspacing from summit.
My truck is stock. Thanks for the help

I run 12.5s on 8" wheels on my 40 and my 60 with no problems. 3.25 backspacing seems to be the magic number, but every wheel is different. If the tires and wheels are coming separately, I'd check the wheels before I spent the money to get them mounted. If theyre coming already mounted, I hope they fit.

Be careful about wheel selection. Lots of posts on here about problems that people have had. For example, this recent thread...

On the LTB's - are those 31's? If so, they should fit a stock truck just fine.

How badly bent are your stock wheels? Some wheel shops can fix steelies? OEM wheels are pretty stout. There's an awesome place in Seattle, I can get the addy if you need.
