Firehawk wheel specs? I know they are 17x9.5 but can anyone tell me backspacing and offset? I'm wanting to upgrade the ctsv brakes and I wondered what I would need as in spacer width and how much I'll need to shave the calipers?

SLP didn't offer a 9 1/2" wheel on the 4th gens. The 50 is 50mm offset. The back of the wheel should have a 17X9JX50.0 stamp. If you measure one it will be 9" between the beads.
The backspacing should be 6.875".
The backspacing should be 6.875".

Thanks guys. I was lookin at squeezing some CTS-V brakes under them but with that heavy and offset I'm gonna need too much spacer. Might have to do some wheel shopping!!
