Wheel help!!!! (1 Viewer)

[dondon]

I am looking to replace my chrome factory LX450 wheels with the Pro comp series 52 wheels. I am looking to get the 16x8's however I dont know what back spacing to get . On the website they only offer 4.25 back spacing. I would like the wheels to stick out a little bit more than the factory. Would that be okay to put on. I do not know anything about wheels. Please help. Thanks in advance

I belive that stock wheels are 4.5" backspacing
you should be fine.

so the wheels wouldnt stick out at all? In order for them to stick out? would the back spacing number need to be higher or lower?

Lower than what is there say 3.5" to stick out 1 inch i believe.
I am no wheel expert.

Facotry is 4.5 so 4.25 should make your wheels stick out 1/4" more than stock. The lower the BS # the more they will stick out. If you want to verify put a straight edge on the back of the rim (works best w/o a tire on the rim but its no problem with one on) and measure down to the wheel mounting surface.
