I finally got my new wheels and tires mounted. The rears are 15x8s with 4.5 inches of backspacing and they look awesome. Im glad I got this backspacing instead of 5.5 because the look is great. The slicks are Hoosier Quicktime Pro 26x9.5x15 The tread width is only 8 inches tho...the 9.5" refers to the tire buldge.

Anyways onto the pics!

WOW that looks AMAZING, car looks perfect! i dont think any wheels would have made that car look more badass. The backspacing is perfect! i always thought 5.5 was the way to go, but those tires line up perfect. Tires doo look alittle small, but it still looks awesome! Whatd you go with upfront, looks like 15x4?
