Is the backspacing and whatnot the same? Basically I am wanting to know if these can be rotated from front to back.

Alright here is the deal...

I have wheels coming, and front tires. The rear tires we had to remove from the order due to not being in stock. In the meantime while I look elsewhere the rest of the stuff is going to come in. I would like to get the fronts mounted so I can put them on, then stick the stock wheel/tire on the back. I know it will look odd though, because we are talking about 17x9.5 TT2's on the front with 17x9 WS6 wheels on the back.

Can I do this? Just to get it driving. Unless of course I can get ahold of these tires soon (which I hope) then I wouldn't have to do this.

I was about to say, you could sure, but why not just ride on 4 WS6 wheels a little longer till the rest of your order was ready

BlackHawk,

I got a 275 Goodyear with about half tread you can throw on there (blown rear) $50 and it's yours. Shipping should be $18?

That sounds like a good deal but I managed to find the Nittos. Both the 555's and 555R's are now on national backorder and I grabbed the last couple pairs of them I could find anywhere...if I have another problem ill let you know.
