Question Will these fit???

Ok, so I'm sure this is a question that has ultimately been asked about every other thread, but I'm just not finding a yes or no answer to it, so I'm asking again.

I found a set of rims that I love, they are the size I want, they look great. I can't find them in the backspacing I want.

I have a 1st gen 4x4. I plan to put a 4 or 6 inch (haven't decided yet) suspension lift on it. Will I be able to run 16x8 with a -19 offset and 4.5 backspace without rub issues, or are these going to cause problems. I'm planning on running 33x12.50s on them.

Here is the link to the rims:

Those are good looking rims. Do they come in a bolt pattern other than 8 on 6.5? That could be a bigger problem than backspacing

Yeah I could only find them in a 15x8 with the bolt pattern he is looking for. But they had the right back spacing and stuff.

Well in that case you are probably going to want to go with the 6" lift just because its a tight squeeze with a 4"lift.

Yeah. I was looking through the pictures of the lifts on the Tire Fitment page in the Tech Library. I like the look of that green one with the 6 inch and the 33s. I think that's what I'm gonna do.

But ARs web site, if you look up by vehicle it only lists them in the 5x4.5 at 16x8. I only pulled up the other site to get offset and backspace.
