Not a clue. I got them used and i never knew what the specs were. I know they are 15x10 though lol

anyway you can measure the backspacing on them? I think I am gonna have an issue clearing my upper control arms with these. 4crawler say ssuch and such lift which doesn't worry me but no mention of the UCA issue with a 15X8 4.75.

On a good note, i'm getting 19-20mpgs now, which is really 20-21mpgs because of the gears and tires.

the measurement is from the outer lip to the center mounting face. A straight egge across the wheel (not on the tire) and a ruler will tell ya what the backspacing is on em.

no problem. I'll try to mount this one tire of mine on a spare wheel that I thought was bent in which it's not and see if it will clear. Not expecting it to though. Even though 4crawlers site doesn't mention issues with the UCA clearance or swaybar mount.

Noone has mentioned this but I think Brain is getting a Toyota ECHO but only because he's too tall to fit into a YARIS.

Hint:

There is actually another thread on this forum that was started about this 'mystery' vehicle you are all so intrigued with.

This hint was NOT sponsored or approved by Swimmerboy2112.

This may jeopardize our internet friendship....(wow, that didn't sound creepy!)

...
i found his "i have 6k" thread and "project car" thread, but all those posts are from last year. someone offered to trade a 92 dlx pu for his camero, but the chevy is still for sale (i think). and a porsch isn't a toyota (observant, ain't i)...

and he said he might have picked it up last weekend. no word on it since then

brian, you're killing us all. and if it's not a fast, small car or off-road capable, then all this hype has been for nothing.
