The bolt pattern and backspacing will work. I don't know what the bore is though. Your tires are going to be really sucked in though.

I thought stock backspacing was around 4 inches. They are 15x8's though as opposed the the stock 15x7's so I guess your right.

lol. guess you did end up getting the boot. enjoying that weeks ban?

4.5 backspacing will be a iffy situation depending on the size tire you run. i ran 33x12.50 on mine, and i rubbed at full lock both ways. now i would assume youd probably still rub the front on the swaybar, but im not sure what it would rub in the back near the firewall.

lol I just got my 6th ban over there for calling a guy a ***** because he doesnt plan on drinking at his bachelor party and such but I will be unbanned soon in a week or 2 but I dont think they truely knew the name belonged to me lol.

What exactly did u do over there what section on rps was this so I can see I get enjoyment out of the rps mods and their ban happy right fingers.

the higher number backspacing, the further in the wheel will be. my wheels have 3.75 backspacing and they are flush with the outer fender.
