    It will be challenging with anything more than 3.75 backspace and an 11in or greater tire section width. Variability as it is, clearance or lack thereof will depend heavily on wheel/tire/suspension configuration and will be a bit different for everyone.

    Just call and talk to Sonny, I'm sure he knows who you are.
    He's more of a phone guy, but nothing has been lost in terms of DSM service.

    Yeah now that i think of it Alex might have 3.75 BS and yes it's all going to depend on the wheel and tire package if your tire will clear the shock when flexed out.

    Yeah i wouldn't think anything would be lost Sonny is a great guy too.

    Well we didn't have contact issues with the shock with those and the procomp 285's so with 4.5 or even 3.75's there should be plenty of room in there.

    Still interested but worried now about the possibility of rubbing. I am currently running 315 70 17s on factory Tundra wheels with Spidertrax spacers. I measured my backspacing and came up with 3.75. Any idea on the chances of these working for me?

    3.75 should be good but every tire is going to be different. when fully stuffed how close are you to the frame?

    How in the monkey shit did you squeeze 315's on a 7.5" wide wheel?
    Aren't you worried about popping a bead aired down?
