Tire/wheel recommendations

Lol. I must be dreaming every time I see a wheel spec that has offset listed….
Anyone? I must be the only one.

Unless I'm reading this wrong (which is very possible), you completely missed my point.

You going for classic bias ply tires or a more modern style radial tire?
Bias ply only has 2 answers left, Gateway Bias Buckshots at 34ish inches tall, or sky is the limit Interco offerings. You could get 9.00-16LT Power Kings until a couple years ago, great tire, but, gone now.
Modern? I like either a 3 peak rated AT like the Goodyear Wrangler Authority (16-20” available) or a budget friendly mudder like Roverclaws.
Regardless of what I get, they burn up pretty quickly. Chip seal roads, rough pastures, heavy stock trailers…

There are still more bias plies available than that, you just gotta look around a bit. STA is one of the common ones.

You are definitely correct about those 9.00 Power Kings though. There ain't NONE left anywhere.

Or maybe I missed your point which is also possible. And not that backspacing isn’t the simple description of wheel position relative to the hub. But that many wheels are only listed with offset so at some point there’s a little math to be done. Regardless
And yes max allowable backspacing is a big consideration but only to the same extent as how much the wheel protrudes. The right backspacing isn’t the one determining factor. Could have the right bs and a wheel is too wide to clear stuff on the outside too.
Anyway good discussion @bucket.
