New 15x10's?

So i picked up my 15x10's from my buddy today. They have a 3.75" backspacing and I have a feeling my truck is gonna sit super wide. I plan to put 33x12.5 TSL's on these rims. Anyone have pictures with similar rims? Am I gonna be sticking way out or will I be ok? I have 15x8's with what I think is stock backspacing (whatever that is) and 33x12.5 AT's and they stick out about an inch.

35x12.5x15 on 15x10 ? BS, they stick out 3-5". I'm thinkin' you'll be fine, I only got 5" of lift and 35's, they do a little rubby.

You ever have any issues with running such a 12.50 tire on an 8 inch rim?

I got my spare (full size) on a stock rim, course I don't drive on it much, but no problems.

No not at all. Most 12.5 tires mark that they require an 8.5 wide rim (which I've never even seen) and I had them put on my 8 wides and never had a problem. Becareful because I've never aired down I think that might put them at more risk...

As far as the tires, great thats what I was going for. Could you try to find the backspacing on those wheels because that can make a huge difference.

I have a 4" lift inthe front and 5" in the rear waiting for me to put on my
4Runner. I also have some Cragar soft 8's mounted on BFT Mud Terrians sitting in my office. The tires are 33x12.50 on 15x10 with what I can remember a 4" back spaceing. I am also worried that they are going to stick out way too far. I cannot stand when people do that to their trucks! So if they do.... anybody up for a set of cragars?
