I would like to start off by saying this forum is really good, alot of helpful info. I own a 2004 charcoal grey fx4 with factory 18" wheels. I just added an AS 2" lift in the front. So here is the question I have. I was thinking of buying the 18x9 Moto Metal 951's in black with -12mm 4.5 backspacing with 285/60-18 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I like the wider stance look so I'd like to use 4.5 backspacing. Would there be any rubbing? And if not what would be the biggest tire I could stuff in there without rubbing. Do you guys think this set up would look ok.

 

that should be fine. i have 285 70 17 on factory rims now with no probs.

 

that would stick out 2.75'' further than stock, you shouldn't have any issues with it rubbing I don't think......would definitely give you a wider stance.

 

Personally, I think a wider tire would look better. You could fit a 325/60-18 (33x13.00) with minor trimming.
