18"x9" wheels, what backspacing?

[GMRACER13]

I've tried a search and can't find the info. I'm looking for.

I have an RCX 6" lift kit on my '98 2 door Tahoe and am in the market for some new wheels and 35x12.50 tires.

Which would fit better (no rubbing), 18"x9" with 4" backspacing or 18"x9" with 5" backspacing? I don't mind if the wheel/tire sticks out past the fender a little.

Thanks for your help.

51 views and ZERO replies. <sigh> I should sell my Tahoe and buy a hellaflush Civic.

yes, get a civic. They are way cooler.

4.5" BS at least IMO...GO

Too late, wheels have been ordered with 5" backspacing.

Not that anybody cares but 18"x9" wheels with 5" backspacing fits perfectly and looks damn good (if I do say so myself).
