****, orderd the wrong back spacing on my welds
i ordered 15x8 Pro Stars with a 5.5" rear spacing, not the right size.
the correct size would be 4.5" of back spacing correct? just want to be 100% sure before i go reordering anything.

Our stock wheels have 4.75" up front and 5.25" out back. I don't know if you have any other mods but that's the stock BS.

My welds are 15x8 with 5.5" backspacing and I run 28x10.50's. Only fitment issue was the tires were too tall and hit the front of the wheel well, theres plenty of clearance everywhere else. They also tuck underneath the fender lip real nicely.

i got new ones with 4.5" back spacing, they fit much better. i have 26x9.5x15 hoosiers on them. with the 5.5s the wheel and tire sat toooo far into the wheel well, lookd stupid. maybe the larger tire fills it up more.
