Anyone have pictures of 16x8 wheels with 4.5" backspacing on 265 tires?

Hi all,

Long time lurker, first time poster. Have done a few searches and cannot find exactly what I'm after for my 2004 TJ.

I'm in New Zealand, so our choice in wheels isn't massive like it is in the US. I've found some nice American Racing 16x8 alloys with 0 offset (which I believe is about 4" to 4.5" of backspacing?)

These are the wheels I'm looking at:

Looking at putting 265/75r16 tires on it (32"s), I have a 2" lift already.

Can anyone share a pic of their wheels with similar specs (16x8, 0 offset/4.5" backspacing)? Hard to picture what they would look like. Ideally would like them to stick out slightly past the flares

Cheers
 
I had 16x8 wheels with 5" backspacing and 265/75R16 tires, but not 4.5" backspacing.

It's going to look just like that photo you posted though.
 
These are from Quadratec. 4 1/2" backspacing I believe. Got them on sale @ $ 75(ish) per rim.
 
Hi @phraza

I haven't been on for a few days but just saw the thread.

I am thrilled with the way my setup turned out

16x8 w 4.5" backspace and 265/75r16 tires.

Here are a couple addional pics so you can see how much poke they have

Thanks for the pics and advice everyone, got my new wheels fitted the other day. Found a good deal on some second hand duratracs too. They are 265/70s (I originally wanted 265/75s but they can wait)
