Question need help with wheel size please

Ok here is the deal. I have a 2002 ta ws6 so we all know it has 275 40 17s on the car right? I am looking to put a set of crager s/s on it i know they are old school but i think they look awsome. What i need to know is the back spacing of the factory rim>. I do not want to change the size what so ever but iI cannot figure out which series of crager s/s will fit because i can not figure out the backspacing. Any help would be greatley appericated

Measure from the wheel mounting face to the back of the rim. That is the back spacing.
Offset is measured to the center of the rim.

The factory wheels are 17" x 9 with a +50mm offset. Anything from +50 to +35 will work fine with that size.

I just looked on the cragar website and didn't find any 17 x 9s, or 9.5s with an offset that that will work.
