Thank you for the suggestion. I didn't see any wheels on there that I really liked. The Raceline custom wheels are sweet, but not for $459/each!


Ok, help me figure out these calcs.

How are they getting 5.9" of backspacing with an 8" wheel and +35mm.
35mm = 1.4"
I thought backspacing would be half the width of the wheel (4") plus the offset (1.4") and equal 5.4". How are they coming up with 5.9"?
