Black Cragar wheels for slicks?

[gn87turbo]

I need two wheels to mount my MT ET Streets on and was going to get these because they are priced very reasonable. Has anyone ever used these on a GN and if so what backspacing would I need to get? I'm assuming 4 inch backspacing and also the wheel would be a 15x8. thanks.

Here's a link to the wheel.

don't get the wheel you linked to- the bolt pattern is wrong.
it is the Ford/Mopar 5X4.5 pattern and you need the 5X4.75 pattern.
as for fitment, i think the 4" backspace is the one you want.

well i dont know what backspacing is (i'm a noob) but these are the rims i was looking at, they are off the GN made for fast and furious, a movie that the only good part was the first 10 minutes with the fake GNX

I ve got a set of American Racing Outlaw 1s- perfect fit for a GN-15"x8" with a 3.75" backspacing-perfect for slicks or drag radials -satin aluminum finish with caps $200. for two. if you re interested- i ve got 4 in toal.

i am using those Cragars for my street tires. Perfect 4" backspacing on the 15X8 rears. The 15X7 fronts could use a little less backspacing on my car. I might add spacers later on to kick them out some.
Keep in mind those steel rims aren't "light". Heavier than Turbo T rims but lighter than GN rims. HTH.
