Question on front tire size
I am looking at getting a pair of either weld pro stars or the jegs kind of these rims and was wondering for the fronts jegs sells their rim in a 15x7 with a 4.00 backspacing does anyone have this size rim on the front of their car or would you know if it will either stick out or go in to far? If anyone one has pics can you please post thanks for all the help.

Re: Question on front tire size
not to be a smartass, but cant you pop a wheel of your car and measure? How hard is that? you have all the specs...
anyway, sorry.
I dont have that wheel, but a 15x7 with 4" of backspacing will fit fine, it will be tucked nice. I think thats even the stock size and bs +/- .25"
i checked, my stock firebird wheel is a 15x7 with 4.25" of bs, so your wheel will stick out 1/4" more, no biggie

Re: Question on front tire size
Thanks for the answer and the only reason I didnt pop my front tire off because my rearend is out and the back of the car is on jack stands which makes it a PITA to get the front tire off. Thanks again
