I'm running these wheels  Pro Comp Rock Crawler Steel Wheels. 2.5 inches of backspacing 15x8
 I would recommend 15x7 though as they would be just a hair narrower

rock crawler rims with 2.5 inches of backspacing

These are a custom order item from 4wheelparts.
I got them from 4 wheel parts because they gave me a screaming deal.

also carries rims that are about the same.

They don't rub when turning at all. But they do rub in the front at full stuff. I plan on fixing this by installing wrangler springs in the front and moving my axle forward a little.
If anyone wants close ups let me know.

It's not a Jeep thing, it's not a Suzuki thing, or a Chevy,Ford thing.
It's a wheeling thing now get out and do it!

Here are a couple of close up pics I took this morning.  I used a spark plug to give an idea of tread depth. You can fit a spark plug in the middle of the tread too with it almost completely covered with rubber.  I double checked and lock to lock there is no obstruction with the closest being the tire side lugs on rear part of the inner fender which has about 1 inch of clearance.  Once compressed I am not sure if it will rub but if so I'll get the hammer back out.  :^)  I also took a standard plastic milk crate and the front clears it easily  and rear diff just barely touches it (tires are at 27psi right now).  I also included a side by side pic of the 235/75/R15 AT tire on stock rim next to these. 

I have a set of 32" tsl's on my kick and I only run 10 psi in them on the street, I think at 27 you are going to wear the center of the tire out, due to over inflation. Looks good by the way!

sweet ride bro, looking at that thing and also that green suzuki as well really makes me believe that suzuki's are sweet and with time and effort can really be the king of the 4x4 world
