315's with 3" lift (backspacing question)

can anyone tell me if 315's will rub anywhere with 3" of lift and 5" of backspacing on the rim? I am unsure of the offset. The rims are 16x8 ARE helix.

I ran 16x8" AR Bajas with 4.5" or so of backspacing with my 3" and 315's. I rubbed the lower control arms just barely at full lock. It made noise and polished about 1/2" of the control arm but that is it.

Without the swaybar and fully stuffing it, I could rub the read of the fender well, but that is jsut plastic and didnt hurt anything. Just roughed it up a bit, not smoth anymore like the rest of the liner.

Once again Jason has got the plan. I got 16x8 AR outlawII with 4.5 backspace after talking to Jason with 315/75/16 xterrains and dont scrub one bit even at full stuff but I have a 3in suspension and 3in body, but I put them on before I added the body lift and ran just fine.




2000 SLT Laramie QuadCab, 3in Roughcountry suspension, replaces spacers with 3in skyjacker coils in place of spacers,3in P.A. body lift. 360, auto, 4.
