I've got a 2006 sport and I just ordered a OME lift and procomp 97's 6.5 bolt 16x8 w/ 4.5 BS spidertrax spacers and some cepek 265x75 16 tires. Do you guys think there will be any fitting problems with the tire/wheels or the suspension?

I would think all will go well, if anything move fender liner, which is very easy!
 
I would leave the spidertrax spacers off. Those are only really needed when dealing with wheels that have 5" or more backspacing.
 
You said you have a Sport edition. Everything I've heard about the Sport edition says it always has the bigger front rotors. Those bigger rotors won't allow for 16" wheels. So you may want to take a better look into if they will fit. Hopefully you can return or exchange everything if that combo won't fit.

Good eye, i didnt even think of that.
[MENTION=110860]RustyOldGuy[/MENTION] Yes just like shootersanks said. If you have a sport, the 16" wheels you ordered won't clear sport calipers.
 
Thank you very much for the info. I just cancelled the order. What size wheel/ tire should I go with. Im taking this runner to alaska with me and I need to be able to go both on/off road?
 
The minimum wheel diameter for sports is 17" beyond that I don't know what backspacing will work best. For tires you could go with 265/70r17 which is pretty close to what you wanted originally (265/75r16). That size fits without any trimming and is usually a touch cheaper than the stock 265/65r17 because its a common size among SUVs.
