    I got 16x9 4.5 backspace -12 offset Motometal 951's
    285/75-16 Kuhmo MT KL71's

    I also have a 3" Lift coming in, ive seen other people run a set up similar to this...but will I need wheel spacers to run this set up?
    Or just do a little trimming?

    And, will i need new lug nuts?

    385s or 285s? If its 285s, you will be fine with just a little trimming up front. You wont need spacers, and they should have given you new lugs when you got the rims.

    Engage Offroad long travel front and rear with some fat tires.
    if they charge you more than $2.50 per lugnut, go to your local auto parts store... out here, a set of 4 is $5.99 at Pep Boys...
