Backspacing, similar to offset, is the distance from the hub mounting surface to the inside lip of the wheel as measured in inches.

Thanks for the info!

Will do. I hope you're paitent though..... I just started this project.

Lol! Yeah, I changed my mind on the build. The original reason I wanted to go 16 was the availiblity of V rated tires in the width I was looking for.

Thanks for the input charger! I really want to stick with 15" steels for the look I'm going after but I want it to perform well too and not be afraid of twisty roads.

Excellent information! Thanks for the input. The 235's I'm looking at 26.10" tall and the 245's are 26.60" tall. Are you running an aftermarket K-Frame?

I will most likeley be going with 16" rims as there is a huge selection of High Perf. street tires availible for a very reasonable prices in this diameter. I'm not a big fan of big wheels, but it seems ZR rated tires in 15" are becoming more rare as time marches on. I would like to go with...
