If I am calculating it correctly that wheel has about 4.50" backspace.

What size tire do you plan to run on that wheel?

What back spacing do the rims have? What size tire are you running? Lifted or stock?

maybe its a ring I'm suppose to be asking about?? so the rim sits in properly? the dealership that is installing my lift etc called earlier and has not put the wheels on yet but they were wondering if i had rings or spacers so the wheel seats in properly. they said they will know tomorrow once they get them on and have it out for a test drive wether or not there is any vibration….i just thought id ask on here to see if anyone knew

You should be totally fine with that wheel and tire combo.

i think they meant about the rim seating properly, sorry I'm not sure what they meant and i won't know til sometime later tomorrow. can anyone chime in on this ?

The only thing that comes to mind would be if you are moving the TPMS (tire pressure sensors) over from the stock wheels. If you don't the tire pressure light will stay on all the time unless you have a programmer that can turn it off.

Also, the little clips that hold the brake rotors on during assembly at the factory need to be removed so the aftermarket wheels can mount flush.

These are the clips that need to be removed....

It sounds like they are talking about the rings you can add on if the wheels you have are not hub centric. I have no idea if the wheels you have are hub centric or not but that's what it sounds like they are talking about.
