Default Backspace question 94 firebird formula

How's it going y'all I'm kind of new here and kind of new to the whole f-body scene! I recently picked up a 94 firebird formula for a too good to be true price,, would love some input on wheel selection and back spacing looking upgrade to a 17x9 wheel wanted to know if there's any equipment issues with a 17x9 with a 5 and 1/8 backspace I see the ones that are listed for 94 year cars having 6.50 backspace! I just really don't like that flat face look to the wheel plan on running a 275 50 17 maybe smaller , any input and picturs with either one of these set ups would be great! Thank you for your knowledge

If you want a good looking 17X9 wheel, check out the American Racing Rebel. They have less backspacing than most and make the car look more muscular. I ran them for awhile and really liked them. They push the wheel right to the outside lip of the fender, but not beyond.
