I am putting mine on tomorrow... Little worried the insturctions say 4.50 backspacing but since you have been running stock wheels for a little bit without trouble it gives me hope. My new wheels and tires will be ready early next week so hopefully no problem running oem's for a few days.

No worries man, stock wheels and tires have no affect on the lift or handling. Been riding a week with the lift and stock tires with zero issues, just realize it will take about a week for the shocks to settle. The shocks were very stiff for the first 4 days, since then they have settled.
