Will these work? 33x12.5x15 Swamper tsl's summit soft 8 15x10 # 3975160 steel wheels
I have what is in the sig. Will the super swampers part # ssw-sam-13 in a 33x12.5x15 mounted on 15x10 with 4" backspacing crager soft 8 wheels part # crr-3975160 work w/o rubbing the caliper or upper control arm?
I am going to get these tires and really need to know which wheel would be best to put with them. I think a 8" wide wheel is too narrow. I don't know if I should get a more expensive wheel with a 3.75 or 3.5" backspace. Maybe use a 1/3" or 3/8" spacer. I don't mind grinding the wheel some to clear the caliper if need be. These will be used strictly off road. I do not want anymore lift so I'll be cutting the fenders and body to make it clear, but do not want to do that if there is a certain wheel or backspace that would work w/o rubbing.
Thanks.
P.S. The wheels and tires are for off road only and the suspension will cycle fully.

i dont think you will have much of a problem clearing those, 8" wide is enough, the only problem i see is that you have to get enough back spacing to clear the upper control arm. you will love those tires offroad, i have em on my chevy only their 39.5"

Everywhere I have searched says that 33x12.5's don't fit with just a spring lift...
I know there are small differences truck to truck, but the wheels play a very important part in proper fitment. I'd rather not run spacers if I can get the right wheel with the correct backspace to start off with.
I ran a set of 295/75/16 bfg at's on my old chevy with some 16x8 wheels and the centers wore very fast. The 12.5 is at least as wide as the 295mm tire and the toyota is lighter. That means the center of the tire will wear quickly which is what I don't want.
