Ordering wheels next week... back spacing?

Aloha.


I'm getting some steelies next week, 15x8...


I know most of the lift kits out there require the 3.75" backspacing...



By this summer, I hope the have the wabfab IFS and rear lift kits, and 32/11.50s...



Can I still use the 3.75" backspaced wheels stock and with the wab fab kit?

I've had 3.75" BS wheels on every 1st gen 4Runner I've owned, never a problem. I can't imagine with through 95 there would be any issues either.

Be carefull. With less backspacing your tires will be closer to the seams in the wheel well. You will probibly need to do a little tweaking with a hammer

on my 93 i had 15x8 with 3.75" bs. ran 31x10.50 and 32x11.50 no problems. on my '79 i run the same wheel with 34x10.50 works great.

Is that a reference to the band or the evil clown, pennywize?

hey I have the same uestion about back spacing, I am thinking of ordering the SS LTB 31 11.50 15 and the pro comp 15x8 black steel wheels. the come as a combo package that seems reasonably priced. but what back spacing or blt pattern would I need or have for a 95 4runner. No lift if that matters?
