Do you know the backspacing on the Torq-Thrust II's?
Thanks

Yes. The front is 17X8 with 4 inch back space and the rears are 17X9.5 with 5.5 back space. They are 4" out all around. The rears tuck in the wheel well alot though. I'm putting spacers in the back. You have to custom order to get different backspace.

Depends on how far down you are going with the truck. 4" backspace would look bad ass because you would have 5.5 dish on it, but if you are really low, you will chance rubbing the fender. My rims on back are about a 1/2 to 1" away from the wheel well.

Thanks for all your help. I will probably go with 4.5 on the front and rear. I believe the owner of the red 68 in this pic said he had 4.5 all the way around. But I couldn't remember.
