Need a little help/advice with back spacing. I recently purchased 5 37x13.5x17 pit bull rocker tires mounted on 5 17x8.5 Walker Evans Bead lock wheels. Additionally they threw in a couple extra walker evans wheels.However when I got everything home I discovered that I had 3 wheels with 4inch back space, 2 wheels with 4 1/2 inch back space and one wheel with 4 1/4 inch back spacing.
I want to run the 4' spacing but I'm conflicted, should I sell the 2- 4 1/2 wheels and buy a new wheel with 4" spacing so all my wheels are the same or can I run the 4" spacing in the front and the 4 1/2 in the rear.

Thanks:

 

Ideally, you want between 4.75-3.75" of backspacing for the JK. You would be fine with having different sets front and rear but them you wouldn't want to rotate them unevenly (like 5-tire rotation).

 

Why not just contact the vendor and have them give you all 5 rims with the same back spacing

 

Because I got them used off of RACE DEZERT for a smoking price

 

That is if he bought from a Vendor. If he bought from a random seller, then that sucks.

As far as running different backspacing, I would say that you would be fine by running the same backspacing on each axle...i.e. 4" in front and 4.5" in rear. Probably wouldn't be toooo noticeable except to those with the knowledge of.

 

Ahhh, didn't see that in your post...

 

I like the look of wider tires in the back...

 

...said the pimp to the ho.

 

Lol. Hahahahaha!
