the backspacing is 5.5 on a 10 inch rim. I ordered new axles so i didn't bother putting all the lugs\studs on, and I got the wheels from jegs for 194.00 because they sent rims that had imperfections.

They look good. I had my heart set on em for a while but I kept drifting towards Pro Stars. Iended up buying a great set of stars for $250 so I'm not crying, oh and I did the 5.5bs on a 10" wheel too. I'm anticipating a new 12bolt!

and if anybody is wandering, these wheels fit the front with a little grinding and no spacer with new brake pads. The rears barely clear areospace drag brakes. The rear is cut 2.5 on each side and i'm using a 1\2 inch spacer.

useful info:

the lugs needed for these rims are mag style shank with 3/4" long shank, the small washers, (welds use the big washers), and M12x1.5 is stock lug threads

the recommended shank for the fronts is 1\2 inch for anything smaller than 15x4.
