Post subject:  Cragar V-5 and Backspace

I was wondering if anyone is running the Cragar V-5? I just came across these wheels and I really like them

I'm placing an order through Summit Racing (shipping is cheap cheap cheap). I was going to go with the Soft 8's but I wanted to mix it up since so many people run those already.

I was just curious to know what the actual backspace for the V-5 is? Some sites list it as 4.5 and others list it as 4.0. If I've read correctly 4 will stick out more than say 4.5 or 5 right giving more of a wider look?

Also was wondering if anyone was running the 16" V-5 if they could post up some pics. Just curious to see how it sticks out if it is 4.5" backspace. I want a wider stance and not sure if the .5" would really be that noticeable of a difference.

I'd love to see some photos of the V-5 running 245/75R16's if possible just to get an idea of how it looks.

3.75 will clear the calipers if you're using 15" rims. Pretty sure 4.0 will clear them as well.

7 inch wide wheel with 4 inches of backspacing
doesn't matter if 15 or 16 inch if using aftermarket steel wheels
4.5 inches backspacing would work good as well
