i just bought 15X7 series 51 rims for my 99' cherokee.  im just running normal tires on them(for now).  i heard that the backspacing on the stock rims was 5.25",  i got the backspacing on the new rims at 3.5".  will that be a problem? bumping the rims out an inch and 1/4 all the way around?  

let me know.  thanks.

your only problem will be more trips through the car wash from the tires sticking out of the fender flares.  
These tires were made for muddin and they're gonna throw mud all over you.
