    I would like to put 17x9.5 (front) and 18x10"(back) torque thrust II's on my GSX. Does anyone know what the back spacing would be.

    I have 15x10's on the back of my car. Backspacing is 5-5/8". With my 325/50 tires, I have about 3/8"-1/2" inside clearance to frame, no problems with my 2-1/2" exhaust. They are close, probably 1/4", to the bottom of the shock bolts. My tires have a 12.4" section width, so I did have to trim @3/8" off of the top of the fender well lip to totally clear tires.

    Can't help with the fronts.
