I am trying to figure out how much narrower the rear end is compared to the front end. I found a great deal on 4)17x7.5 wheels with a 4.5" bs and unsure if they would fit. I think ill have to order a spacer.I cant pay alot for staggered wheels and would like to get these. If you have any info please enlighten me. Thanks a million

a good way i'e found is to take a tape measure and measure subtract the smaller from the larger and that is the difference

7.5 inches wide with a 4.5-inch backspace? Sounds like they'd be better suited for a later model with a wider track. I'm thinking that you may have some interference in turning the front wheels. If you get them and they don't work for you, are you gonna be able to turn 'em and not get hung to dry?

Oh, from one vet to another....thanks for your service.

Thanks and thanks for your service also. I love it here,but i cant build trucks so id rather be home. The wheels are almost the same as factory wheels. 15x7 with a 0 offset(4" bs) from factory and these are +6(4.5") but .5" wider. I just cant find info on the track width. On 73-98 chevys i know the rear is roughly 1.25-1.50 inches narrower.
