5 x 4 3/4" is our lug pattern. looks like you are limited to 4" backspacing.

and that meanssss? lol

that is the bolt pattern. the only way your wheel studs will stick through the rim holes is if its 5 x 4 3/4

on their site from what i saw for those wheels, only backspacing available for 5 x 4 3/4 is 4".

no i know that, im not handicapped. lol i mean like will i be able to run them?

oh my bad haha. my buddy had crager's on his camaro with 4 inch backspacing. they stuck out a little too much and gave him a little bit of issue with wheel to fender clearance. its was liveable, but he ended up swapping them out.

i barely cleared my tires(295/50/16) on snowflakes. so looks like im gunna have to pass on the cragars...

any other decently cheap 16x8 wheel options?

They look like ass anyway, IMO they belong on a truck

I hope you meant 245/50/16. Trying to fit a 295 on an 8" rim would be quite a tight squueze.

nope, 295. 8' is the smallest recomended wheel size for a 295

i have 295's on 10.5 inch wheels fwiw

It is, but you can do it.

Can some one post up the correct backspacing for a 4th gen?

Those wheels are ugly and worse they heavy. There is a reason they are cheap.

BFG says 8"-10" on a 295/50/16. Why you would want that tire is beyond me. Quick search finds no quality tires that size. A BFG Radial TA on heavy wheels sure is no recipe for handlng or braking.

There is an outstanding sticky on CZ28 in the wheel section that details all the rims you can fit.

I know you can fit a 295 on an 8" wheel, but again - why? It's a 27.6" tall tire (2" taller than stock) and as Scott said, they aren't any decent tires sold in that size anyway.

mickey T ET street 2 is a pretty decent tire id say..

oh, drag tire. get a lighter wheel. those wheels are heavy.

trying to get some draglights...

some stock fbody wheels weigh probably half what those steelies way. as another option.

my MT's are currently mounted on the "snowflake" wheels
