Hey. Can I get away with 33x12.5/15s on a 8 inch wide wheel? Most places say they recommend a wheel 8.5-10 inches wide. I'm not planning on airing the tires down more than two or three pounds from street pressure, if any.
Also, I'm new to this, and backspacing seems tricky to me. Am I correct when I say that less backspacing means the tires will stick out of the wheel well farther? And more backspacing means they will not stick out as far? Or do I have this backwards?
