What type of Centerline Wheel is this? ...And Backspace Question
I just bought 16x8 Centerline wheels that have 5" of backspace. I know stock, the Formula rears have 5.25" and Fronts 4.75" of backspace. I know the rears are fine, but am I really going to need a 1/4" spacer or will I be okay?

And what type of centerline wheel is this? I have searched everywhere online...

Re: What type of Centerline Wheel is this? ...And Backspace Question
I am not worried about the type of wheel. I need the backspace info mainly.

Re: What type of Centerline Wheel is this? ...And Backspace Question
the front might rub a little, i wouldnt worry about it. All else fails, a 1/4" spacer isnt the end of the world, just make sure the studs are longenough.

If you have a front brake upgrade, the thickness of the new rotor hat will make up the space.

Re: What type of Centerline Wheel is this? ...And Backspace Question
Cool, thanks. I do not have to front brake upgrade. I may get a spacer if it gets too bad.
