Default YearOne Rally 17x9s??????

I'm starting to go a different direction with the build and looking to go more of the trans am style build and imitated Tim Allens ride. First step was to look into these year one wheels. Any concerns with the 9" wide up front or am I looking at the tru-turn system still with ridetech? Says there 9" wide with 5" backspace. Is that an issue rocking a 275 up front?

Going for the square stance with what looks like a taller tire out back.

You will likely need around 5.75" back spacing on a 9" width, and might consider 18" dia depending on what brakes you want to run. There companies that offer rallys with custom backspacing, which is what I'd recommend for what you are wanting to do.

Do you know who those companies are?
