Wheel backspace for 17"
 
Now that I have the car on order, I'm sorting through the other details. I want to use 17" knock off wheels with the 5 pin adapter. Can you tell me the backspace needed? I want to run 255/40 in the front and 315/35 in the rear.

Thanks,
Bob

For the FIA: Wheel Specs

For the 427: Wheel Specs

Note that the rear-wheel backspacing is a little different with the outboard-braked (bolt-on) rear suspension.

Bob,

Have a look at the Vintage 17" wheels available for Replica Cobras. They are in stock and would certainly make a nice high quality build.

Thanks. I really like the Vintage wheels and am leaning that way. I kinda like the new 17" BRM style too.
