and I measured the 8 inch rim and it was a 5 inch backspace(it read 4-7/8 in reality)


ok now to install the rim, and then I moved the car around the shop to settle the suspension to actual ride height


now left and right turns for clearance



so the question is how much space is there?


enough my fingers fit



roughly about a thumbs thickness above the rim


or here is the actual ride height numbers ground to fender edge 23-3/8 inch
