    hi, searched but found nothing. I have a 04 4wd tacoma with a 6 inch fabtech lift and 315-75r16 tires. I want to get new rims because the ones i have now are pitted and require the use of spacers wich i would rather do without. My question is, on a 16x8 rim will 4.25 back spacing be too much? I dont want the tire to rub on the spindle arm

    I think Fab tech says to use 17" rims with their lift....

    that big a tire on an 04, 4" backspace would look better...

    it would also keep the sidewall away from the spindle...
