New wheels, question though
I'm going to need new wheels. Like night I slid off the road and put a huge gash in two of my rims. Honestly I'm not sure how they even have air in them right now.
But anyway, I'm looking at these Cragars. They are cheap and stronger then aluminum lol. So I know the size and everything, but what about backspacing? I'm no expert on wheels and all the measurements other than the obvious. It says they have a 5" back space. What is our stock rim back space? Will these work fine? Do I need any spacer?
Looking for any advice/help I can get.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, so they will stick out a 1/2". I think it would look good like that. Not too much, just enough. Yeah, I'm going to take some pictures and you will see why I need new wheels lol.

Haha oh yeah I did it good. The other one is not as bad, but there is about a 2 inch piece missing from the lip. The sad part is, I didn't even hit the curb too hard. It rained, then it freezed up and snowed on top and was slick as hell. I was more upset that I didn't save it then I was about messing up my rim. This just gives me an excuse to get something different lol.
I found a nice set of American Racing ones on eBay, but the seller only wants local pick up and they are in Ohio... I sent them an email. I want to get them to ship them to me. We'll see. I don't really have the money for all new ones, but I'm having a tough time just finding 2 stock ones like mine. I'll have to call the local salvage yards.
I almost don't want to find 2 stock ones so I can get new ones, but at the same time I know it's the smartest thing to do...
