April 19, 201114 yr I'm running some pretty wide 15" 6-lug wheels I got from Summit. I'm looking into a rallyx setup with 14" rally tires and wheels. I was thinking about going to Les Schwab and asking for steelies in the right specs. Assuming, I guess, a 14"x6" wheel, what kind of backspacing/offset would I need to get? I want to make sure they're tucked in under the fender a bit more than my current 15" wheels. Thanks. Jacob P.S. I searched, but I couldn't find numbers. Les Schwab will want numbers, because they sure as hell won't have anything in the computer for a 6-lugged Brat:)
April 19, 201114 yr You'll want the highest backspacing you can get your hands on. You probably don't want to go over 4" backspacing, but that probably won't be an option with a 14" wheel.

That's some good advice. 4" backspacing would translate into 1" positive offset on a 14x6 wheel, right? I can't seem to think for myself today... Jacob
