Default Back Spacing question

I am looking at a pair of 15x8 prostars, with a 4.5" rear spacing.. How far will they stick out on a 99 camaro? Whats the correct back spacing to fit the rim nicely in the fender?

Anyone have any pics of 4.5" back spacing?

With an 8" wheel (actually 9") With 4.5" backspace You will have 4.5" sticking out. So, if you measure from the base of your studs 4.5" toward the outside of the car, this is where the lip of the wheel will be.
