I have 255 x 75 x 17 stock tires and was wondering what the stock BS is? At full turn I have about 3/4" space between the tire and the sway bar. I'm get ready to buy a set of tires and figuring out where the stock rims are can help me decide between running 17 x 9 or 16 x8.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's 6 1/4"

Do you know if that's the back spacing on all of the factory wheels or just some?

Specifically, do you know if it is the same on the stock Rubicon wheels?

Thanks

I believe that is all wheels but for sure the Rubicon as thats what I have. I sold my wheels/tires and went with larger tires and 4 1/2" back spacing.
Hope that helps.

By the way my rims are 17 x 8 and my tires are 35 x 12.5 x 17 they fit nicely.
That is also the wheel size the tire shop recommended for that width of tire. I asked about 17 x 9, he said the 8's would be better.[IMG][/IMG]
