Will these work?
Guys, anyone know if these will work on the rear in my car (87 vert) w/ stock 4th gen. rear & brakes, MB Old School 17X9.5 (6" BS) & 275/40/17 tire. I would like the tire to be inside the wheel well. Also would prefer not to have to do any mods (bfh adjustments) to the wheel tubs. Looking @ 17X8.5 w/ 245/45/17 (4.5 bs) for the front. Hate to order & have them not fit. 
any help would be appreciated, THANKS

yeah, that rear wheels would fit pretty well on a 3rd gen width axle.

What backspacing whould you guys think I should be looking for? This particular wheel, 6" is the deepest offered. Once I get the offset nailed down, I have to figure out what other style to go with. I'm trying to avoid using any spacers at all. THANKS Again for any imput. Jeff<jnman>
