Default wheel backspacing

I am thinking about buying a set of 15x8 american racing wheels and they have a 5.25 inch backspacing and i just want to make sure that they will clear everthing before buying them. I have 245/60/15 on it now with the stock 15x6 wheels. does anyone know the backspacing on them? thanks.

I can't remember my education on backspacing, but it should work. However, you might not like the rockslinging the 245/60s do on 8inch wheels. I had to tone mine down to 235/60s.
