F ForceFed70 That's why they call it "dope" Founding Member Dec 6, 1999 4,818 1 69 BC Canada Dec 16, 2004 #1 Dec 16, 2004 #1 The 5 lug bolt pattern is 5 x 4.5" So the metric equivilent to that is 5 x 114 ??? Also, I've noticed alot of rims specs show "offset" instead of "backspaceing" do these mean the same thing, or are they different?

Check out this webpage - toward the bottom is a diagram that shows both, as well as a chart that converts back & forth...
