I have a few wheel questions...

Looking at getting a set of American Racing TTII's. Here's my problem, or question: the wheels I have now are GTA's with the different front/rear offsets, the application guide on AM's webpage you can get the different front/rear offsets but only in 17x8 or 16x8 sizes. Those of you that are running these wheels, what backspacing, offset and boltpattern are you guys using. I have a drum rear if that makes any difference? TIA

Here's AM's link

Transmission: A4, A4, slated to be a T56

Whatever you decide on I recommend getting the same offset and backspacing at all 4 wheels, that way you can rotate them without having to change tires no wheels due to the differences in the stock offsets.
