I have looked at previous posts and seend that members have been able to order the Cragar SS rim with custom backspacing. My question is will this setup fit ok: 275/40/R17 in the back with 5.5 backspacing and 243/40/R17 with 4.5 of backspacing. If this will not work or is not a good setup for any reason please let me know. Also where can i get the best deal for these wheels....THANKS A LOT in advance

With a 245 tire in front, you're probably gonna rub a little. I would go with 5" bs on an 8" rim. In the back, you won't find a lot of people running 9" rims...most are 9.5" with 5.5" bs.
