Is getting a wheel with less backspace okay? It is only 4" backspace will it stick out more? or in more? These are the specs of the wheels I want. 16x8, 5 on 4.5 Bolt Pattern; Backspace = 4 in thanks |

Well factory BS is 5.5",so your rims will stickout 1.5" farther out.I had 16x8 rims with 3.75" BS and had all sorts off rubbibg,may want to stick with 4.5"-5" BS depending on tire size to prevent rubbing if at all possible.Oh and you are going to a 1" wider rim than factory so add a 1/2",so they will stick out a full 2". |

Yea, those would rub kinda bad. What size tires do you plan on using? Some 16x7 rims with 4" BS wouldnt be to bad.. I have 16x8 rims with 5" BS and my 245/70/16 tires rub alittle on the front fog light area and on the rear fenders(not bad at all) when flexing without extended bumpstops. Its nothing to worry about so Ive not cut anything.
