15x9 Convo pro question??? important
I have a question with the 15x9 convo pro wheels that have 6.5 backspace. What is the offset on these rims? Also if I used a 1.25 inch spacer per side would the fit the rear without grinding the calipers? (I am not worried about them sticking out they are going on a chevelle with ls1 brakes. I just have to know if they fit the f-body backspacing wise. (caliper clearance.)

Off set is measured off center. Center for a 9" wide wheel would be 4.5" backspace=0 offset. With the center 2 more inches to the outside that would be 2" positive offset, or if my math is close (25.4 mm per inch) would be about a 50-51 Positive offset. unless your car is tubbed I think your big problen would be contact with suspension, inner fender wells, stuff on the inside.

in short- they should work fine. people run the 15x10's in those, with the same B/S...so these should fit the same from mounting point inward. should be 1" less to the outside- which should make them 'tuck' better.
