Tires and Backspacing
First sorry for the post but in the 40 minutes I just spent searching I am still unsure of what to do.
I am going with 33x12.5 Super Swampers TSL's. The Body LIft is sitting across the living room from me right now.
As for the rim I am not sure if I want 15x8's or 15x10's. As I understand the 10inch rim will make my tire look wider- please correct me if I am wrong. If it will look wider I am going to go with the 10.
I am unsure of the look of 3.25 and 3.75 on either rim. If someone could post pics of different backspacing to give me an idea of what I want that would be great. I have fender flares and want to keep them.

no matter what you need either a 3.73 back spacing or a 3 5/8" backspacing...one metric and one standard measurments.....
my truck pics with 15x10's and 3 5/8" backspacing with 12.5 wide tires...
if you want them to stay more in the flares then get a 15x8...check my cardomain for 15x8 pics...
yes 15x10 wheels will not make your tire "look" wider...it will make your tire wider

Okay so if I get 3.75 it is going to be a little further in the wheel well than 3 5/8. Are we talking an inch or 1/4 inch. Sorry if I am being **** about this but I just want to make sure I am buying exactly what I want. I don't want to put the tires on and say well they don't stick out as far as I wanted but I can deal with it. I want to put them on and say that looks perfect.

Okay after some more searching I have come to my conclussion of course I am leaving it open in case someone wants to add anything else.
I am going with TSL's 33x12.5 on Black Rock Crawler (cheapies)15x10 rims with 3.75 bs. I know the rims are cheap and very popular for that reason. But I like the rim and think the black will look sweet on my white truck. I have seen a white fullsize ford with black rims and it looks sweet.
