Another backspacing question
I'm going to buy 17x8 TTIIs for the front of my 89 GTA, and I was wondering if 4.750 backspacing will work...
Thanks

I think 4.5 is the most you can go w/o hitting the strut....

That should be no problem. We've run wheels with over 5" of backspacing up front, but it gets very close to the strut.
