Tundra wheel back space / offset

[JNK-RNR]

Ok so I bought the wife...err..yeah a 2006 D-cab Tundra to drag our quads around with. the question is I am trying to find out what combination of BS / Offset people have used to fit an aggrezzive 33x12.50. (She would prefer the TOYO Open country's). I could just do wheel spacers but I would like something a little "cleaner". The leveling kit I ordered will be here to day (Donahoe). I have looked at the Tundra Solutions page and have not gotten any where.

Chris, I think you could just take one of the stock tires off, measure what the stock backspacing is, and then calculate what b/s you need for the new tire width.

If you asked me how to run through the woods with make up on my face and kill people, well I could do that, but I have never figured out nor tried to measure backspacing...could you enlighten me

Its pretty easy. Get a straight edge and lay it flat on the bead serface of the wheel.Then get a tape measure and put the the end of the tape on the serface where the studs go through the wheel.Look where the tape touches the straight edge and there is your back space measurement.

Thanks looks like I will be figuring this out tomorrow when I put in the new Danahoe shock mounts.
