Default will a 14.5" tire fit?

Looks like DTD is out(plus back order) of the 12.5 version of the tires i want. but they have the 14.5" ones available.

Here are my specs or soon to be specs. RC 4" lift plus 1.25" body lift. I have 4.517" of back spacing.

Will i be able to run a 14.5" tire?

your front tires will rub the control arms at full steering lock with that backspacing. I run 1 1/4 " spacers and have no problems
