sorry I know this is another rim question. I have set on team III wheels. I will use 17x8 front and 17x9 or 17x9.5 in the rear. 245 45 and 275 40. What backspacing should I be ordering. I using 92' stock front and back four lug. Will I have and rubbing or fittment issue?
thanks

Paul-

I'm using 17x9-1/2 Centerlines in the back, with 6" backspacing. Don't have tires on the rims yet, but from what I can tell after measuring them, I shouldn't have a problem. The FFR manual says to use 6-1/8" BS with 17" wheels in the back.

For the front, FFR recommends 5" when using 17" rims. I'm using 5-1/2" and a 1/2" wheel spacer due to fitment issues with my brake calipers.

Some people have experienced rubbing of the inside of the front tire on the F-panels or the tie rods at full lock. Some have added some sort of device to limit lock-to-lock, while others simply live with it.
