What backspacing for my new wheels?

[wilfrid]

I got the wheels (finally)

After some delays I finally got the american racing torq trust II, 17/7 with 4' backspacing.
I mount them with 225/60/17. They fit perfectly although close to the body for the front ones. as my springs are very tight there will be no problem.
please note I have the stock disk brakes, as well as the standard trailing arms (no offset)View attachment 15228

Looks great. I told you they would work. I should have sold you mine. I hate the wheels. They keep a shine for about 3 weeks. I'm going to a different wheel or have these chromed. I hate polishingYours look great!!!!!!

polished vs. Chromed

I decided for the Chromed ones. Good to learn it is worth the investment. It certainly had to do with a delayed delivery as they are not on inventory.

I had no idea they came in chrome. I'll have to check. You made a smart move. Enjoy.

The chrome wheels have the same part numbers as the polished except the pn starts with a C.

Wilfred, they look great. Please post a side profile shot showing both front and rear wheels.
