A 32 x 10.5" would fit just fine and wouldn't rub. That is what I wanted to
get at the time but I never found that size, although I didnt look that hard
either. I have no idea what the backspacing was on the rims. I ordered
them from summit and they never told me the backspacing on them, they just
wanted to know what year the truck was and if it was a 4x4.
