Default 04-08's with Dick Cepek Torque Wheels

Planning on running Dick Cepek Torque Wheels (17x8.5) on my 08 4x4. I'm gonna wrap em in a set of 315/70R 17's. Already have a Rough Country 2.5 leveling kit with rear blocks. I know I'll be cutting it close with the back spacing on these wheels (5in). Anbody running this set up or something like it? Any rubbing?

I ran the same size tires I mentioned in my original post. They're Hankook Dynapro M/T's. Only needed a 2.5 in leveling kit to fit em. I also trimmed about 6-8 inches from the trailing side of the splash guard inside the front fenders because it would rub when I had the wheels cut while reversing. I also trimmed about an inch of of the corners of the lower valance.

315/70/17 BFG AT's. 3" Rough Country level with 2" rear blocks. Just trim the valance about an inch and the back wheel well splash guard up about 6-8 in like you said and you will be fine. Mine only rubbed in reverse and full lock to the left. No more rubbing after the trimming
