So to tuck in the rear should I stay with a 17x8 and the 5 1/2 backspacing?
What size tires are you running? 255/50/17's?

Steve,

On my new 17's which are 17x8 in the front and 9.5 in the back the
backspacing is 5 1/2 and 6 1/2. The fronts are tucked in the wheel well.
The rears are right under the fender lip which is fine with me since I'm
running R/T flares. I'll have some pics as soon as all this snow melts.
