its best to post questions/problems on the forum so a number of people can use the information and thanks for the compliment, but beleive me there are plenty of other members around who know much much more than i do.

if you do go with that back spacing you will go through hubs more often due to the added pressure

Ya true good point okay last question lol sorry to bombard you, well i was searching just now and found these rims with 5in backspacing. Are these a better choice than the others? And what would be the max size tire i could fit with these, im trying to fit the largest tire possible. thanks

i would go with the 5"BS for the reasons NVANZEE stated, but without rubbing the stock tire size will be the biggest.

What do you mean "go through hubs"?

the farthe the wheel sticks out the more stress there is on the wheel hubs. In result making them heat up more than normal. So they go bad quicker than with a stock set up
