Title: offset/backspacing
Post by: carson on November 24, 2009, 11:16:58 am

I've got some 18x9 wheels with a 0 offset, 5" backspacing and they are 6x5.5. Would that offset and backspacing fit on a 75 Blazer with 33x12.50? If not what would it take to make them fit?
Thanks,
Carson

Shouldn't those be 10" wide wheels then?

They might be. I bought them used for another truck; but if they'll fit, they are going on this one. They are in storage right now or I would measure them to be sure. Assuming they are 10" would they work?

both would fit..

wiht 5" backspaing they wont stick out as far as a normal 4" or 4.5"BS

Alright, I've got a new plan. I want to run Super Swamper 33x13.50r15s and Cragar Soft 8s. The 10" wheels with 4" backspacing will fit right?
