Front backspace 17*8 on dart, final advice before buying

Yes i believe the diff front discs push the mounting surface out a bit, from what ive read i think its 3/8". I never measured before and after. I dont have to run a high ride, i havent measured my fender to ground clearance but it looks in line with what im seeing other people run with similar size tires. What i did to.check the clerance everywhere was i got an unmounted mustang tire with the backspace i was looking off of ebay cheap and mounted it all around and measured from there taking in to account the tire size. Maybe theres a cheap wheel on Craigslist near you or in a junkyard.
Really? It must push It out more because if your backspace is 5.72 then it would be 5.72- 3/8 = 5.345 backspace for original discs which seems like alot from what I've seen?
Unfortunately I won't be able to find any rims to use for measuring in Sweden. Was your clearances anything like the pics I posted?
