    Well i've been trying to order the ballistic jesters in a 17" -12 offset 4.5 backspacing for awhile now and it seems they are out of stock in that. Is there another backspacing/setup that would work fine for my double cab offroad... Tires are 275/70/17 Firestone Destination A/T with Bilsteins w/ Eibach or OME Coils. Don't want them to stick far out maybe just an inch or two. Not really familiar with the backspacing and everything on the wheels. Thanks for all the help!

    4.5" backspacing is what you need, but that's only equivalent to -12 offset for a 9" rim only...
