backspacing on the stock rim is 6 inches.

if you go with a 3.75 inch or 4.5 inch backspacing aftermarket rim they will stick out, giving the appearance of a wider stance.

Before you go getting new rims what size tires do you have on there? 30x9.5 I wouldn't change the backspace more than .75 if you got 235/75's you can probably go to about 4.5 back space if you have 235/70's you might be able to get away with 4 inches maybe 3.75. I know for a face 235/75's will rub if you go to 3.75 back spacing.

If I had to guess they will rub if your at the stock ride height. But let me know if they work out for you because I would be buying some for myself if they dont rub

Well I'm pretty sure they will rub at full lock, but I just wont turn the wheel that far
