    im looking at putting a set of wheels and tires on my Maverick and need help knowing what will work? what i have in mind is a set 16 x 8 wheels with 245/50/16 tires. ive done some reading on the forums and ive gathered that i need roughly 4 inches of backspacing. i am currently running leaf springs and the original 8 inch rearend. i also just purchased a Grabber spoiler and quarter extensions for the trunk, other than having to drill holes for the spoiler, will it fit properly.

    thanks for any help.
