Default 17x8 Pro Comp 7089 Rims??

Just ordered these today and this is probably a stupid question but will a 35x12.5 tire work with a 3in TF lift?? I don't understand all the backspacing shizz...I just want to make sure I order the right tire. Got 35"KM2's for 210 each...I need some fast clarification...

Yes, 35's will work with that Teraflex kit and that's a good size rim for 12.5's. Those wheels, more than likely, have a BS of 4.5 so you'll be fine.

These are 17x8 Pro Comp 7005 w/ 4.5" backspacing and 35's on 2.5 Rough Country coils. These work, but I think I am installing 3/4" spacers next. 3" should be fine.

thanks for your help guys, tires are at a shop near downtown LA. It a wholesale tire shop. Only down side is the wait to have them installed. Can take sometimes a whole day because there are so many people on weekends...and it's not really in an area where you want to be waiting all day.

Where are you guys finding these deals?

The cheapest place I've found locally wants $280/each! One local tires shop quoted me $385/each!!!

The cheapest place online is like $277 delivered. Please PM with where you're getting these prices!

yeah this is the kind of place that doesn't really give a sh--- about you...they move lots of tires to dealerships and sell to the average joe as an extra perk...but they know their prices are unbeatable so they are kind of assholes. Whatever though, I can put up with an asshole if they can save me 500 bucks
