Has anyone ever run the dunlop tires? I am thinking about getting thier 35x12.5x15 mud tires ($531 to my door). Anyway I would like to get some chrome spoke rims for them. Where would be a good place? I checked summit and didnt see the size/6x5.5 bolt pattern I need. Idealy would 8's or 10in wide be better? Finally will 3.75 backspacing be ok? I read thru the what fits, thats how I come up with the 35's with 7in of lift, with no real serious flex should be fine.
3.75 BS is fine, too much more and you can have problems.
Summit has the 15x8's, 6 on 5.5, I'll try to dig up the last packing slip for the part number.

1studiac,
We carry most types of rims, including rims built with custom built back spacing. Most companys which sell wheels can get 3.00, 3.25, and 3.75. The 3.75 will work fine however, thats pretty off set. The ideal choice is about 3.50 back spacing. As far as rim width 8" would be best if you do a lot of off-roading, and for more on-road use and less tire wear the 10" would be recomended. Standard chrome, black, or white spike rims run roughly $28-$34 each and custom back spacing run about $42 each. If you are intersted feel free to e-mail sales@outbackjeep.com or give us a call at 1-888-588-JEEP.

15"x8" would be the size to run.
What kind of truck would these be going onto? Those tires would probably work with that lift and a WT or a J-truck, but might still need some fender-trimming with a 4-dr or NT Cherokee.
