Alright I have a 03 1500 4x4 that I'm going to be installing my 3" body lift on hopefully this sunday. I am going to be purchasing new tires and wheels within the next two months. I want to get 35x12.5 with a 17 inch wheel. Its between Terra and Trail Grapplers and then was gonna most likely get Cragar wheels.

Cragar 397-Series Black Soft 8 Wheels - JEGS

My question is what wheel do I need to get in order to not get any rubbing from the width of the tire. Thanks much. I have tried reading about backspacing and all that but I'm still just super confused about it.

Alright so looks like I'd have to pick a different rim then cuz the cragars are only a 9" wide. Thanks for the quick response tho!

I love how they look. If I don't have the cash to buy the rims with the tires I'm just gonna buy 35x20's n buy some 20" fuels. But I'd love to get 17" fuels
