wheel backspacing and offset issue
im looking to get the carli starter kit and im looking to get 20's for it as well.
my question is does anyone one know the proper backspacing and offset i need. im not looking for the tires to stick out too much. also what size tires should i get?
thanks in advance.

stock wheels are 17*8 with 8 x 6.5 lug pattern and ~6.1 backspacing. if you don't want them to stick out there are hardly any wheels with correct offset and backspacing. most aftermarket wheels have 5-4.5 backspacing that will push the wheels out= more stress on hubs and mud all over the side and possible rubbing on wheel well. Look for something with close to zero offset!
