Will these fit?

Tow a 5k lb trailer which isn’t much but the truck needs to be able to still turn lock-to-lock to maneuver it into a lot of the places it goes.

Cant have it preventing a full turn in either direction with the steering wheel or it’ll make it too much of a pita to use.

Truck: 2” BDS level spacer with plow springs from factory (43-3/4” front fender height on stock tires for reference)

wheels: 17x9 -12 (4.5 BS)
tires: 37x13.50r17

will it create turning issues or be just fine?………………..…. I’m also very open to 12.50 wide tires but it seems they’re backordered and only 13.50s available?? If it will create any issues then what backspacing is needed to have it function properly?

I can't say for certain but the negative offset might be an issue. I've seen trucks with 43 1/2" fender height run 37's with +18 offset with no issues.

Best bet for optimum towing abilities is to leave it STOCK.
