The backspacing will determine if they'll rub or not. I went to their site and noticed that there is 3 different backspacings depending on which finish you choose (chrome, black, or super finish). Super Finish has one w/5.974 one w/6 and one w/6.762, Black has one w/5.974 and one/6.762, and the chrome has one w/6 and one w/6.762. Those are all the 315s, 22X9.5 with 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern. IMHO, i'd get the ones with 6.762 on the backspacing and run a 1/4 inch spacer on the front and maybe run a 285/45/22 or get 6in of backspacing for the front but i'm sure that would look a little strange. Hopefully this will help you

backspacing doesnt really play a big role when your at that height. I had a 2/4 with 305/40 22 and +12 offset on 9.5". no problems.

Did you pull a car trailer with that combo?

I was looking at these same wheels.

I am running an 06 CC 4wd GMC and thinking about doing a 2/4 drop.

What did you decide to do for backspacing or offset?
What tires did you end up going with?
Where did you get everything from?
Thanks,
Dan
