    Ok, well i think im going to get the torques, but in 17s...cause im planning on running kelly safari tsrs in 315/70/17

    Heres my question - the torques are 17x8.5 and have 5in of backspacing and +6 offset.

    Are these tires going to fit? and will they stick out at all?

    They'll stick out some. If you can find some 5.5" bs it will be almost back to stock. 315 is a wide tire too...you'll be looking at fender flares next

    Well i want them to stick out, i was more worried about rubbing. Cops down here dont really care about how much our tires stick out either.

    Unfortunately, they only have the model with 5" of backspacing...maybe i should look for a different wheel

    if you want em to stick out get some wheel spacers. and get the wheels you like/want.
