convss. I have 15X8 rear and 15X7 front, but I am wanting to get 15X8 for front so they are all same size. the car came this way when I bought it. it has 245 60 rears now. question. is backspacing on these 4.25 or 4.50?

either bs should work for you
do you have stock 15x8 rims now?
do you want the bs to match on the rims you want to purchase
that way you would have 4same size tires on 4same type rims

the rear has 15X8 rallys. yes, I want the same size all the way around. the seller said the rims were GM rallys. I don't know the back spacing on the rears. but I hear either 4.25 or 4.5. I am looking at VISION AMERICAN MUSCLE 55 Rally Series silver wheels from Summit racing. these are 15/8 with 4.25 backspacking.
