Wheel Offset/Backspace question. How do you guys think a 18 x 10.5 wheel with a 20mm offset would look on an f-body in the rear? I calculated the backspacing at 5 inches give or take.

I just went and put a straight edge on my fender and took some measurements. Not going to work out like I want. Thanks for the info guys. I'm going to call the company and see if they offer the wheel in a 38mm or 40mm offset.

Well just got off the phone with the company that makes the wheels... No luck. It looks like I'm going to have to find a nine inch that has been narrowed. I'm not really looking to put to much money into the car right now, because it might sell this coming spring. Should i just see if i can get the 10 bolt cut down or should i go a 9"?
