I run 37x13.5 tires on 18x10 wheels with 4.5" backspacing and get moderate rubbing at full lock, especially when compressing the suspension (torsion bars are cranked so truck sits almost level). I trimmed the lower 4-5" off the inner fender, as it was getting chewed up. On 9" or 9.5" wheels, you're likely to get less rubbing on the fender, but the 4.75" backspacing may result in some minor rubbing on the frame and sway bar. Another concern is if you have rear air ride...more backspace puts the tires closer to the air ride sensors, which could cause damage when offroading.
