Do I Need Spacers

I have a set of 15X8 Cragar wheels with 4.75 back spacing. I'm mounting 33X12.50 on them. Will I need spacers or do you believe the tires will clear the control arm without rubbing. I know I'll have to do some pounding but need to know if I should get the spacers or not. Have a 3.5 hour drive coming up soon and don't want any rubbing.

Here's the link to the spacers I'm looking at. Non-hub centric

yes.

how much i'm not sure...but yes you'll need them (or so it sounds?) to keep your tires from rubbing on your upper control arms.

i have a set of 16x8's with what i THINK is 4.25 or 4.5" backspacing (didn't measure....oops lol, they're Ultra's that look like American Racing Atlas II's) i have 285/75's so they're narrower than your 33x12.50's...and mine are about 1/8th of an inch or 1/16th of an inch from rubbing on the upper control arm.

i'm gonna get a set of 1" spacers just to give me the room for wider tires and more stability on the road and off.
