4.75 Backspacing on a 37" tires
How bad am I going to rub? 37" Toyo M/Ts & 17" 4.75 bs Procomp 7069?
I was hell bent on the wheels. Do I have any options to rub less? Help me out guys.

They're going to be mounted tomorrow on my Stock JKUR suspension. I'm awaiting a RK 2.5 kit. Tires are 37x13.50R17. What is the most amound of backspacing you can run without hitting wheel on caliper?

Secondly, yes they will rub like a mofo. I currently have 37x12.5 tires, 3.5" lift and 4.75" BS wheels and they rubbed bad on the lower control arms and sway bar. Fixed all this with Spydertrax 1.5" wheel spacers. I'm now at 3.25" BS

youll most likely need at least a 1.5'' wheel spacer and trim the pinch seem. i run the same tire size (toyo) be sure to check for rubbing on the upper spring perch when the tire is stuffed durring articulation
