Default Ordering my new rims

Ok fellas i am making the plunge and gonna by me some cragar soft 8s, 17x9... I will be ordering next monday when i get my bonus from work... i have one question, it has 5.00" backspacing so i dont have to worry about rubbing issues, but i was wondering will they keep the same stance as my truck does now with 1.5" spacers? or will they stick out further? or not as much? i have to get my truck inspected and they cant stick out at all, but they will pass now, so i just need to know to see if i need to get the truck inspected before i throw on the rims. thanks dudes

and matt99 i will let u know as soon as i get them off if ur still interested in the spacers...

here is the link to the rims

I have those same wheels with 4.5" backspacing - that is the same as stock if I am not mistaken....

BTW, Summit is the best for fast shipping.....
