    Probably been asked before. 15x10 wheel. Not sure of the backspacing. Pretty big I'm assuming. How much clearance should I have from the back of the wheel to the caliper? It is literally about an ⅛" away from touching the caliper. 95 reg cab 4wd

    As long as your wheel spins free with the lug nuts tightened your good to go.

    Some of the older ( mid eighties) steel wheels will pull in tight against the caliper.

    Makes it hard to move I found this out the hard way.

    Why the Tundra brake upgrade does not work with 15" wheels

    Yep you should be fine as long as it clears otherwise you could do a 1" or smaller spacer on the front or all the way around if you like.

    Yea I dont think I want to run a spacer as the backspacing is already pretty aggressive lol. Thank you guys for the input!
