I have spent the past 4 hours trying to find some wheels i like for my Jeep. I want to run 33x12.5's and because of Utah's strict regulations the tire tread can't exceed the edge of my bushwacker flat style fender flares. So.. here comes the difficult part. I have found the rims i really like and they are the 15x8 ion alloy 174's. However they run at a 3.5 inch backspacing and i have come to the conclusion after many hours of research that they will stick past the bushwackers. So i dug deeper and found that same rim but a:
Now, can someone help me translate this haha. I understand that its a 16x8 rim, and that it has a 5x4.5 bolt pattern (which is what our cherokees have right?) The rest of it i have no idea what it means? Will this rim provide the proper backspace to keep the 33x12.5's within the fender flare coverage? What is the difference between backspace and offset? Sorry for all the questions
