wheel back spacing
Anyone have back spacing #s for 20x8.5 and 22x10 on a 71 fleetside. I've got different #s from everyone that sells wheels. Truck will be bagged on stock a-arms and rear just c-notched on bags. Thanks, Bruce.

Re: wheel back spacing
That thread is helpful for bagged trucks, what about coiled rides?
(Forgive my ignorance, but do the same rules of thumb apply?)

Re: wheel back spacing
the absolute best thing to do is actually put a tape measure on YOUR truck. Put it on jackstands with the weight on the suspension and measure all the clearances.

Re: wheel back spacing
I converted a $30K + 4wd Show Blazer into a 2wd so I live off of expensive mistakes I have some 17" Eagle 212's I'm using as rollers until then anyways. (Craigslist Score)

Re: wheel back spacing
yeah but $5k plus for a set of wheels and tires that end up not fitting would be nothing to laugh about.
