Paging Wandell - pls see pic of backspace measurment

Am I measuring this right in the pics ? I saw a few posts where others thought the oem 20x8.5's were either 5.5" or 6" back space, but I took a wheel off yesterday and measured 6.5".
Am I doing it right with the straight edge - referencing the inside edge of rim ?

I am not wandell but I can answer your question. Yes your factory rim has 6.5 inch backspacing and you are measuring right.
