If your running stock rear width that will not work. You would need to narrow I'm guessing about 2" per side to get it at 5.5 BS. I have stock width rear and have 19x10 with 5.5 BS and it's tight. I think you would need about 7-7.5" BS with stock rear. Hopefully someone with more experience chimes in.

I think that would still put u at about 1" under the fender and out. U would rub like crazy. With an 11" rim yes but 12" I don't see that happening. If ur looking for a lot of lip. Just for reference I have about 3.5" of lip now. So not too bad. Other than that u will need to narrow the rear.

Are you talking about the 5.5" backspace?

The 7" backspace on 12" wide rim on stock rear is a common size everyone runs without issues. I thought I might be able to squeeze the 6.5 ...

I think it just might sit a little too far out. It also depends on tire size. I measure from the brake face out to the fender and see how much room u have there. Then add the reminder to the inside and see how much room u have there. Also depends on ride height, if ur trying to tuck the tire or have the tire just right under the fender edge.
