Thoughts on these wheels, tires, and backspacing.

Found these 17 inch Centerlines a couple hours from where I live. Good tread on all 4 tires and minor curb rash on one wheel. I can buy them at a really good price.



The fronts are 17 x 8 with 255/50R-17 tires and the rears are 17 x 10 with 275/50R-17 tires.

Front backspace - 5.5 inches.
Rear backspace - 6.5 inches.

Seems like a lot of backspacing. What are you guys thoughts? (I don't want to drive two hours to look at these if they aren't close to exactly what I need.)
