question on rims with lift

[Ron46]

I want to get new rims soon for my h3, and I want to make sure they will be good with the rancho lift. I read that you have to go with a 17" rim with at least a 4" backspacing, but I was wondering if it is possible to stay with a 16" rim without spacers? Also if anybody as any suggestions I am looking for a simulated bead lock. Thanks!

I went through the same problem and couldn't figure it out but I settled on 16.5 rims. You should reach out to Chris, he has a rancho lift as well and I believe he is still running 16.

I believe you just need the right BS and center bore... and 16" rim is the minimum due to the brakes
