I'm thinking of getting these M/T Classic II wheels in the 16x8 neutral offset variety. Some of you may recall my past posts regarding clearance issues when replacing the stock steelies with an aftermarket wheel. These ones have 4.5" backspacing, so I'd be going from a 16x7 with 5.5" backspacing to a 16x8 with 4.5" backspacing. I'm hoping that this change won't require any modification, or just the pinch weld mod at the most. Does anyone think I'll have to trim the fender? Also, is it safe to assume that my wheel will be protruding another 1.5" from the fender? Will this have any implications from a legality standpoint?
TIA
