Measure the thickness of your checkbook first.

I guess i'm not asking correctly.
Where are you getting the wheels with these 7.5 backspacing or offset rears and 4.5 or so for the fronts? Sorry i'm still learning all these terms. i'd like to go with 18's on my 88 iroc. i could care less about rotating them. I guess "staggered"? is that what i mean?
