Wheel backspacing

Post by RC1 »

Hello! New guy here. can anyone tell me the backspacing for stock wheels for a 65 f100. I would like to put more agressive tires on it but dont want them rubbing the suspension.

I do not remember the back spacing.

You can run 11" wide tires in a stock fleet side wheel well wihtout problems. 12" will rub on bumps and hard cornering. Haven't ran a stepside yet but you will get to a point where even asphalt road grime will chip away at the paint.
