what size rim/back spacing for 28x10.5?

[YeaItsSlo]

8in or 10in? im going to buy new rims just for slicks, what would be better? 10in? what back spacing do i need?

i cant remember off the top of my head, but i think i ran a 3.5 with a 1/4 inch spacer on weld 8 inches. i would go with 10's for a big tire.

anyone know for sure?

i have my 28x11.5 et streets (which are actually 28X10.5) on 8 inch wheels. most tires that size should also work on 10 inch wheels, but it probably depends on the brand of tire.

What back spacing is the questiion?

 

[azgn]

actually, 28X11.5 ET Street are the same as 28X9 slicks.....28X12.5 ET Streets are the same as 28X10 slicks

BS on a 10" rim should be 4.5-5 depending how your car sits on the frame.....some will require notching and/or rolling the fender lip

I would definitely mount and fit before buying.........
