    Todd,
    I had 17x9.5 on the rear and 5 3/4" backspacing worked perfect for my 275/40/17's. On the front I had 17x8 with 4 1/2" backspacing (I believe) with 245/45/17's.

    I have 16X8's with 4 inch back spacing all the way around. They fit great!

    Here's the back. Soon to be a set of 15" rallyes with 245/60/15

    The current tire in the pic is a BFG KDW G-Force 245/50/16 front and back.

    Todd: questions...

    Is my rim style what you are looking for?

    Does that price include tires?

    What kind of tires? Size?

    Did you order them yet?

    I may be able to get you a better deal, as I have a dealer account. I paid $1600.00 for all four rims, tires, and center caps.

    Thanks Rick! I dont have any full shots of the car right now. I am working on it for the summer season right now. Believe it or not, I have a set of 15" ralleye wheels coming for it. I really love the stock look too!
