I would run an 8 in wide wheel maybe 10 cause it will help keep your bead on better I would try the wheels you've got if theyre 16.5s. I have 39.5x15x16.5 swampers on a 10 or 12 in wide wheel and I wish the wheels were narower. on the sidwall of my swampers it specifies a 9.75 in wide wheel. I dont think backspacing will affect you too much so I would not worry about it much, But i've been wrong before.
"or will the stock tires work?" I assume you meant stock wheels?
