I finally got these Cragar 390 Series wheels last Saturday. They had ordered the wrong backspace, I waited 3 weeks for the right ones, then discovered that the fronts were the wrong backspace as well. I took a second look at the ones originally ordered for the back and found that they were the correct backspace for the front. Confused? Another added bonus is that they are all four 17 X 9's and they make the 50 Series tires look less "bulbous" than the original 17 X 8's did. No more polishing cast aluminum wheels.
