is there any resource available that provides all the details on what size rims and tires will fit under a lifted Bronco including backspacing, offsets, etc...? a new wheel purchase is way too expensive to experiment by trial and error.

I have a 4in lift on my '92 with 35in tires with no rubbing or bottoming out.
Hope that helps

No, there is no comprehensive wheel fitment guide for EB's, mostly due to the fact that there are so many possible variables when it comes to lifts, aftermarket steering linkages, non-OE Dana 44 knuckles, etc.

Any semi-competent wheel/tire place should be willing to test fit any combination you may like to run. Most will say to stick with a 3.75" backspacing unless you have a 76-77, then 3.5" would be better. How is your rig currently setup (lift, cut or uncut, etc)? What size tire/wheel are you looking at? Obviously dubbing your EB with 20's is not going to require the same sort of input as a bone-stock rig. The more information you can provide, the more helpful the insight you might receive from others.
