off-set for 33/12.5 on stock 5 stars

[thorridder]

so im looking to trade off my rims. had a couple hits but nothing too good. but a guy offered me 5 stars, ironically what i replaced these with, but i sill want 12.5" tires, and good thing he works at a fab shop and said he could make 5 spacers for me to throw in the deal and thats amazing. but i need to know how many inches of spacer i would need. any help would be great and i need it like really soon so he has time to make them by this weekend if i go for it.

I'm running 315/75/16 which are a 35x12.50. You will need at least a 1 inch wheel spacer to run a 12.50 wide tire on a stock backspacing/offset wheel. I would just bite the bullet and buy some Spidertrax spacers. They are proven and Spidertrax knows exactly what they are doing. I am currently running them at all 4 corners and have nothing but good thing to say about them

i figured it would be at least 2" for 12.5" wide

Nope. I got plenty of room with 1.25 spacers

ok another thing is they have stock 265 tires, i have 4.56 gears, can i drive on them and it not hurt anything?

You're fine. It will probably feel a bit more spunky.

i found the tire size-to-gear chart and it was on the edge on towing and power and bad fuel
