So what size wheel with how much backspace is needed to run 37x12.50R17's as to not require spacers/trimming/steering adjustments? Just wanna weigh all my options.

Factory wheels have 6.25" of back spacing. 1.5" wheel spacers will effectively make them 4.75". 4.5" or less is typically what I recommend. Ideally, about 4" is a nice back spacing to be running.

Fuck it...I pulled the trigger. Just ordered a set of Cooper Discoverer STT Pros in 37x12.50R17 & a set of American Outlaw "Ranger" 17x8.5 wheels w/ 4.5" backspace.[emoji869]

...oh, & some longer coil springs to give me a wee bit more clearance.

Postings in the 'What did brown Santa bring' & the 'What did you do to your rig this week' threads soon to come!!
