Wheel Back spacing questions

I am getting ready to order a set of Rock crawler steel rims and I am not sure about the backspacing. I have a 94' 4runner with 31x10.5s I have only about 1.5 inches of lift. Should I go with the 3.75 spacing or the 4.5? Also the bolt pattern is 6x5.5 correct?

Thanks
Scott

3.75 is the correct backspacing. You can run those tires on stock rims (15x6), and were, I believe, standard equipment on the SR5 models.

Yep i think they were. I am planning on getting the 15x8s just incase I go to 33x12s on the next tire change.

Any problems with 31x10.5 BFG TA/KOs on 15x8s?

Thanks

Nope.

EDIT: now that I think about it, you might need to adjust backspacing for a wider WHEEL...anyone know for sure?

3.75" back spacing should work fine up to a 12.50. I am running 33x12.50's on a 15x10 steelie with a 4" backspacing with no issue's.
