So I have my Yukon 5X4.5 manual locking hub kit coming in tomorrow. For now I will use my existing wheels which are 4” backspacing 15X8 on 33X12.5 tires. The small hub kit pushes the front wheels out .75” inches on each side. This will give me 3.25” of effective backspacing in the front. Has anyone run the small hub kit and can report how their backspacing handled with it? Or has anyone run wheels with that little backspacing and can report how it felt?
I will probably get new wheels when I go to 35s for my next set of tires. I’m thinking 4.5” backspaced wheels will work nicely and give me 3.75” with the hub kit. I can always use a .75” spacer in the rear. If I ever outboard the rear shocks and need more room. I’m open to different ideas though!
