Default Backspacing on Pro Comp 7069 Question??

I am looking at getting some new wheels / tires for the JK and I love the look of the procomp 7069s but they only come with a 4'' back spacing on the 16''s. My question is will I have any issues regarding rubbing and or anything else? I plan to go with 33s (not sure what brand) and I currently have a 1'' body lift. I have heard that with 33'' you mostly dont have rubbing issues, is that still true with a 4'' backspacing..

Thanks,

Mike

You shouldn't have any rubbing problems. Guys who are running lifts 2.5, 3,4.5 usually run a 4.5 or 4.75 Back spacing. The lower the number on the back space the further out your tire will go.

You'll be fine. I'm running the 7069's 16x8, 4" backspacing with 35's, and never had any issues.
