backspacing dork

Hey guys how are you doing, I had a question for ya

I'm not to good at this bolt pattern backspacing stuff, I have a 1992 Pontiac Firebird I know that its a 15 in. x 8 in., 5 x 4.75 in. Bolt Circle but I have no idea about the backspacing, there are these black crager wheels that I want which have a 4inch backspace but I don't know how much backspace is acceptable for me to grab these wheels, do you guys know? Thanks guy.

Re: backspacing dork

8" wide should have a 4.5" back spacing, but 4 will work, depending on the width of the tires you use the tire may bulge out of the well a little
