I have a chance to buy some Kinesis or Corvette Zo6 wheels but i'm not certain I have done the math correct to determine if I need spaceers. Can anyone help double check my math? My reasoning behind the math is to keep the center of the tire in the same location as it sits now. Let me know your thougthts.

the advertised rim width is usually 1 in narrower than the measure bead width. So an 8" rim would measure 9" and your back space would be measured to the bead.

you trq thrust column would read

8
4.75
4.25

My mistake. The front spacing didn't play into my calculations. Please disregard the front spacing.
