    maybe somebody here can lead me in the right direction. im getting ready to get some American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels for my 90 Convertible. The front wheels will be 18x8 with 245/40 Nitto tires and 18x10 with 285/35 Nitto's for the rear. The brake swap will be with the M-2300-K Cobra 13' kit. I have moser 31 spline rear axles already. I have looked but i cant find my answer. Im wondering when i order these wheels they are custom ordered. what back spacing, offset, etc. I already rolled the fender lips and massaged the inner fenders so the body work is done. I want to do this once and do it right. I already know they will fit because i already saw them on a car with the exact rim and tire size. Also the car isnt lowered. anybody think they can help? or has anybody used these wheels and sizes on their car? heres some pics of it already done..

    I dont think you will find an answer to this question without actually putting the brakes on the car and measuring it out yourself. And esp if your ordering custom wheels, you need to get it right the first time

    fronts need to be 5.94"(151mm) backspacing +24mm offset

    backs need to be 6.3" (161mm) backspacing +22mm offset


    just buy some bullet wheels from american muscle they would be cheaper anyways.
