Cragar Soft 8 16x8 on '95 4x4

Anyone ever put the Cragar Soft 8 16x8 wheels on a 92-96 Dakota with a
265/70R16 tire (equivalent of a 31x10.50 tire on a 15" rim)? The previous
owner of my Dakota put 31x10.50x15 tires on stock (6" wide) rims and I'd like
to not repeat the fun bald-in-the-center tread wear. They have a 5" backspace
which worries me as they're 2" wider than stock but the backspacing is only .5"
less. I could get the 16x7 with the 4" backspacing but I don't know if I want
that skinny a rim either with the 265/70R16 General Grabber 2 I wanted to get.

An example would be http://www.summitracing.com and look up part number
3977864P.

Thanks!
