Oh this is a 255-75-15 on a rim with a 3 3/4 Off set , I have a set that is 4 1/2 Off set which I think will bring the big tires in and end up with no fender edge rub . If not I will have to get to the drawing board . Also don't know yet how they will fill the well and settling on the springs ???? Help right now I think he said they set about 3 or 2 3/4 inches from where the body will be back on frame . Once I put the disc's on this rear ( 59 1/4 mount to mount ) will add about 1/2 inch per side .

Bobby I ran a tape from the frame rail out to the front edge of the tire, I`m at 12.5 inches, and I know we have differant offsets, and rear axle width, just trying to give you an idea.
