I have been looking for some backspacing info in the tech section on the main page. I couldn't find it. Searching just came up with thousands of posts with varying degrees of help. Rather than start another thread with the same question we see all the time on here I came up with this>

Idea: Everyone post up their wheel and tire combos in a sticky thread in the new "wheels/tires/brakes" section.

Leave only this info:


Front:

Wheel diameter, width, and backspacing

tire size

Rear:

Wheel diameter, width, and backspacing

tire size


Mods: A short description of any mods needed to fit those tires.

Edit: TonyD suggested pics. Lets see 'em!

Mine:

Front:

factory 15x7 rallys
235/60-15

Rear:

factory 15x7 rallys
235/60-15

Mods:

1/2" lowering springs all around...poly bushing...the tires look like donuts! :?
