rims and tires

Hi im new to the forum here and i have a quick question. will 33x12.5 tires on 15x10 rims with a 3.75in backspacing fit on a 1984 toyota pickup? im planning to lift it i was mostly just wondering on the backspacing.
thanks

The 3 3/4 backspacing would be fine, but most people run a 33x12.5 on a 15x8 rim. Just seems to fit better IMO.

i second that. except i have a 3 inch suspension lift. rubs a little on tight corners when i hit bumps and stuff.

alright guys thanks a lot. a 3 inch lift was what i was planning to put on it. Now i just need to get the cash together to do it haha. are there any suspension lift kits that i should stay away from? or are they pretty much all the same?
thanks

there are "lifts" and there are "suspension kits" if you just want to lift and clear tires do a body lift. but if you want to clear tires and get more ground clearence then do a simple 'mass produced' suspension lift, aka downey, rough country, skyjacker, those companies. and if you want long travel and a lift and tire clearence and the whole schebang! go to marlin crawler or all pro. as far as staying away from to answer your question. umm... if i were you i would stay away from the "lifts" and put some suspension on your beast. save the money and do it right the first time. thats just my opinion
