AR Baja's and BFG's

I am getting ready to get a set of new rims and tires and had a couple questions. What would be the proper backspacing i should go with (3.75 or 5.25?) and will they clear everything on my 04 FX4? Will the 32's rub? does anybody have any pics of this combo? thanks for your help and input

Yep go with 3.75, it'll look great! Not the same exact rim but same size and backspacing. And I just like posting pics lol
