Question for rim experts------>

Ok, I have looked everywhere, done every search, and looked in every nook and cranny. Does anyone know what the stock backspacing is for my 92' 16x8 rims for drum brakes. I have heard 4.5, 4.25, 4.75, 5. I have heard it all. Also, to be positive, our bolt pattern is 5x4.75, right? If not, what is it? Im planning on buying some Eagle Alloys 203, but need to get all this info. Thanks for the help.

Why is it that the people selling wheels DO NOT have the info on what needed to fit their procuct???? All they do is leave you out in the cold trying to guess what you need. Or is it the buyers don't ask questions??? I keep seeing this same type of posts.

Contact Todd at Streetwaves Wheel and Tire out in Texas.

He can get you all the info you need and may be able to set you up with a smoking deal on rims.
