i belive with a 8 inch wide wheel the proper backspacing is 4.5"

I ran 17 x 8 with 4.75" backspace for a while and the wheels were WAY too sucked in. With my new 17 x 9.5" up front which have 5.5" of backspacing that puts the outside lip of the wheel & tire at the same point a 17 x 8" with 4" of backspacing would put it... still plenty of room. They fit on the rear with no issues either.
