yeah another damn noob question please dont beat me just wondering how wide of a rim i should be looking at i've decided on 31 inch tires but i'm not sure how wide of a rim i should look at getting adn what kind of back spacing i should be looking for it will be going on a tracker with a 2 inch body lift and eventually a 2.5 inch suspension lft

Edit and what kind of tires would everyone recommend for a vechile that will be mostly for trails but will see some highway usage i saw some well priced and what looked like good tires on ebay but the guy doesn't ship to canada

8" rims with 2.5 or 2.75 backspace work well

Check out 4 wheels parts. They have a steel rock crawler 15X8 with a 2.5 backspace for $39. Other places had the 2.5s but they were more $, took 3 weeks to build and were unpainted.

I have a set of 2.5 back spaced rims but they are real heavy, if I was to order them I would get the light weight ones. I have seen them both ways on some sites.
