I have a set of Alcoa wheels with 3 3/4" backspacing and 32x11.5 BFG MT's -- there WILL be some rubbing. To help alleviate that problem, I cut about 1.5" off the front, lower valance and trimmed the black plastic fender liner both at the front of the wheel well and at the rear. Now I only have minor rubbing on the passenger side at the back of the wheel well when steering hard to the right -- nothing that will cause damage.
