What is the backspacing for the widest tire I can get on the back of my 84?

Well this is from an article using weld wheels to try fitment. So here goes.

15-INCH
15x8 with 4.5 BS Front and Rear, use tires with an aspect ratio of 55 or less and a section width of 255.
16-INCH
16x8 with 4.5 BS F and R, aspect of 55 or less and section of 255
17-INCH
17x9 with 5.5 BS F and R, aspect of 40 or less and sections of 255 Front and 275 Rear
18-Inch
18x9.5 with 5.5 BS Front and 18x10 Rear with 6 BS aspect of 35 or less and section of 275 front and 275-295 Rear

AS QUOTED OUT OF MARCH 2000 CAR CRAFT
I hope this helps. NOTE: these are the widest it says will fit without major mods.
