94 backspacing

[phybere]

I have a '94 4x4 ranger, I ordered a 3" body lift which just showed up the other day.
I'm hoping to put on 33x10.5x15 tires, and am looking to order new rims. I'm considering 15x8 rims (in case I ever get 11.5 wide tires). I know the lug pattern is 5x4.5, but what would the ideal backspacing for this setup be? I'm a bit confused by the whole thing
If anyone has any other suggestions for what I'm trying to do I'd be interested to hear it.

the backspacing on the stock wheels is 3.75" and i am pretty sure that most people dont have problems with that.

you choice on wheels is a good idea.

Would a 4.0 inch backspacing be much different (the wheels I'm looking at only come in 4, not 3.75)
Using a 4.0 backspacing instead of 3.75 would push the wheels an additional .25 inches away from the truck body, right?

actually it would put it .25 inches closer to the truck. as far as i know it doesnt cause any problems though.
