Default Backspacing

Will a set of 16x10 inch rims with a 4.5" backspacing fit on a 99 dakota sport 4x4 with 33x12.5x16?

you will likely have rubbing issues with 33x12.5 those meats are huge.
but with that much of an offset you will wear out your hub bearings quickly
If you want those tires you are gonna have to lift it

[sm=badidea.gif][sm=badidea.gif][sm=badidea.gif]bad idea...wheel bearings will go after oh mabie 10,000 miles. truck will kill the bearings if you take it off-road tith those tires with that much offset, most states you will need aftermarket wheel flares too to make you street legal
