The site doesn't give the backspacing, so it's impossible to say. Try looking at the manufacturers website. The Cooper's are getting good reviews but I don't know about the Generals.

BAck spacing is sorta of the old way to do thing. The best way to know if a wheel will fit your car is by off set. Back spacing changes with each wheel width so it is hard to get a good understanding of it. SO with off set the it is the same all the way around. diferent vehicles have the stock offset and you go off of that to achieve what you are wanting.

High offsets such as a +79 means that most of the wheel is under the car tucked.
the lower the offset the further out the wheel comes from the vehicle.
-12 will start coming out from the fender wells on the ford trucks for the most part.
It is all where the center of the wheel in referance to the plate that you bolt to the vehicle. I hope this sorta explains it. If i need to i will make a thread for the whole subject in very good detail.

David, I believe you have that backwards. The offset will change due to wheel width, while keeping the back spacing the same. Danielson, do a search and you should find plenty of information on wheel width (offset,backspacing) heres a little jumpstart. https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=317716
