Default What is the back spacing on these wheels?

I rencently purchased a pair of ZR1 17x11 rims. Measuring the back spacing i came up with a hair over 7.5 inches. What does that equate to in MM?

I just looked up the specs on the ZR1 wheels that I bought for my old corvette...The 17x11s that I ordered from AFS had 7.93"/50mm backspacing, and the 17x9.5s had 7.4"/56mm backspacing. I do remember that the actual ZR1 wheels that came on the ZR1s had the 36mm backspacing and they stick out way too much on a regular corvette, and those are the ones not to buy. Hope this helps.

Sounds like a 36 mm wheel.
