I need some help here fella's.
I have a 1981 Luv with a 1985 chevy S10 rear end. I'm trying to find the widest tire and rim combination that will fit up under the bed wheel well. For the life of me I can't figure out this back spacing stuff. I have 5.25 inches from the hub mounting surface to the outside edge of the spring perch and about 5.5 inches to the frame. My guess is a 9 inch tire on an 8 inch rim, but it's the rim fitment that I can't figure out...backspacing...offset...???
Any help, guidance, opinion, experience, will be gratefully accepted.
Thanks ya'll.
