another front skinny question.....

found a used set for sale. the rears are 15x8 w/ 5.5" backspacing, so those are good right? now for the front skinnies, it says that the backspacing on those is 1.5". are those gonna be ok? unless he really meant 1.75" and wrote it wrong. so what do you guys think? then i wouldn't have to use spacers right? cause the 1.75"- 5/16" spacer is pretty close to the 1.5". thanks for any help.

The Weld front skinnies only come in one back space.

The 15x8's are right.. you will still need a spacer on front and back, along with some grinding on the rear caliper.
