Re: need help with wheels
sure it can be done, you just need the proper backspacing, which should be somewhere between 5 and 5.5" based on the sticky at the top of the page and my mental thinkings. It has a lot to do with what brakes you have on the car and if you plan to ever upgrade them since the brake upgrades move the wheels out more

which backspacing would be better as far as clearence for a 275? how much is to much? i have stock 92 rs brakes not upgrading anytime soon i have read the sticky an it says you can only run a 255 up front with a 17x9 an 5/5.5 of backspacing?
