    I am about to purchase an OME 883 with AAL along with 16" steelies and 285/75r16. Any recommendations on the backspacing and wheel spec's?

    I'm running 285-75-16's on the stock spare wheels. Not sure what the BS is but, measure your spare for that number.
    For the front, I am running one 1/2" spacer on each side which gives me some space between the uni-ball and the upper inside of the tire. No spacers were used for the rear.

    Hope this helps you.

    I have 4" bs and put 1.25" spacers all round, perfect fit. Also added axle relocation brackets on the rear (moved forward .75") so the wheels tucked up into the wells with zero rubbing
