For a 97? If it is, the pics above won't do you any good as Chasos08's 2008 has completely differnt wheel specs from the 97-03's.
I have 16x10's with 4.5 inches of backspacing.

digging up an older thread by a few months.

Wandell,
Your pic above shows the 4.5" bs.

Procomp offers a 16x10 steel chrome wheel in a 4" bs...
How much further will it stick out? ( 97-03 models )

Thanks

A 10 inch wheel with 4 inches of BS will stick out 1/2 inch farther than one with 4.5 inches of BS.

So if there is more back spacing then you would need to trim less??

I hope I can find a rim with a decent amount of bs I love the look of wide tires and tires sticking out the sides
