17" wheels

Hi guys,
I really love those procomp 6007 mags and i wonder if i can put them on my truck (ranger 2008 4x4 4L XL) without spacers and rub issues. They are 17" * 8" with 6mm offset and 4,75" backspacing. I planned to put 265/65/17 grabber on those wheels.

Thanks for you help guys.

Mathieu

4.75" of back spacing is going to kill ya... if you ran some .75" or 1" spacers that would help

i run 17x9s with 4.5" of backspacing and 34s with out any problems at all

so you should be alright i dont think a 1/4 inch will make too much of a difference. and stock bs is 4.5".

agreed. you will be fine with 4.75" BS on a 1" wider wheel. that tire size is the same OD as stock(assmuing you have a tbar truck) and should fit w/o any rubbing

ok thanks to all for your answers...
so if I undestand, i should be better to go with 6007-7965
17x9 5x4.5
-6mm
4.75"

instead of 6007-7865
17x8 5x4.5
6mm
4.75"

-6mm offset isnt a problem??
