Backspacing question

[Black 93 Fox]

I am looking at getting some smoothie 2 wheels. The backspacing on them is 108mm is this gona look ok??? I dont have a clue what that 108mm means I dont want to order the wheels then have them look like crap. If anyone knows anything about the backspacing can you help me a little?

Thanks, Black 93 Fox

25.4mm=1" so, 108mm=4.25" backspacing...seems kinda shallow, how wide are the rims?

I believe you can run up to 6" of backspacing on stock track width foxes without modification...the older style Cobra R rims had 5.92"...

but I'm sure someone else will chime in with more accurate measurements-I think they'll look sweet if you get the right depth!

They are 17x8

So you think I need to bring them outwards more? Should I get a spacer maybe? Thanks for the help

if you get 8" rims with only 4.25" backspacing you're gonna end up with almost 4" of rim on the outside...

see if you can get them in like a 5.5" or 6" backspace...or ask them which backspace they recommend

Ok I got it now they will be too far outwards need to bring them in more. There hard wheels to find in 4 lug so im not too sure they are gona have the backspacing I need.
