What backspacing do your wheels have?

The wheels are,

AX181 Artillery Wheel - Teflon by ATX Series
17x9 wheel size
5 on 5 bolt pattern
Backspace = 4.53in.
Max Load = 2200lbs
Finish = Teflon
Hubcentric = No
Offset = -12mm

It's funny though, with the backspacing it fits perfectly on the stock spare tire carrier. I have ordered the MBRP reinforcement kit and the Daystar tailgate spacers to help with the added weight.

Thanks for the info! Do you find that the wheels and tires stick out past the fenders a lot? Or is it pretty flush with the fenders?

Here's mine on Goodyear Wrangler MT/R Kevlar 305 70 R17 with a 2.5" lift. The actual height of the tires is said to be 33.8" so pretty much 34"

No, they're not flush at all. They stick outside of the fenders. Just took this pic.

More picks please. About to pull the trigger on some toyos, can't decide between 295's and these.

I guess it depends on if you like the short fat look or the tall skinny look. They are very close though the 295 is 2 pounds heavier, 70.6 vs 72.8 lbs. Mine are 1/2" narrower and 1/2" taller then the 295/70's.

From the Toyo website:
LT285/75R17 (34X11.50X17)
LT295/70R17 (33.5X12X17)

I'll take more pics this weekend after I install the RK 2.5 lift and post em here.
