backspacing question ???

[NOVAhoe]

ok so im looking for some new wheels for the yukon, im having some issues deciding on backspacing, i know what the sizes mean and all but i just dont know what they will look like on a yukon, i want wheels that stick out just a tad past the fenders, like maybe a half inch to an inch out, im looking at some with 4 inch backspacing but like i said i dont know what that would look like on a truck like this, i had a jeep with 3 inch backspacing and that thing was so wide it was ridiculous, that was also on 10 inch wide rims with 33s haha

Only reason you ever want tires to hang out past fender edge is to destroy your paint.

thats why i dont want them out that far, i just want some more width to make it look better, i decided on the 4 inch backspacing though, it will look good

alright and the other question is chrome or black wheels? lol im stuck in between chrome would look good and clean but black always looks clean and ive always been a fan of black wheels, what does everybody think would look good, just want a second opinion

4.5" BS with a 12.5" wide tire on both....red truc has a x9 wheel, blue one has a x8

how much lift is on the blue one?

and i ended up going with black 17x8 soft 8s on 31 inch general grabbers, should fit nicely, i can go higher if needed

about 5.5" on the blue one, 8" or so on the red one

well i definitely know how tall i wanna go now lol, and im glad i got 4.5 inch backspacing cause it will fit perfect, and mine doesnt have fender flares on it either
