      Specs on the Galaxie wheels:

      Summit Legend 5 (142)
      Gunmetal Centers
      18 x 8.5
      -6mm offset
      5x4.5 BP
      Clears C6 Z51 brakes all around with lots of clearance.

      They only gripe I have about them is the center caps. They're very plain. The powder coating looks fine and the machining looks good too.



      Hope this helps!

      P.S. I ordered the 1st one seperate to make sure that it fit, and It arrived the very next day. The other three took three days to get to my house (because I ordered them on a Friday afternoon). So, shipping was very quick too.

      They look great, Post up a picture when you get them installed, let me know how much clearence you have.
      Im going the same route, and Id like to see if I can squeeze the 9.5 with a 5.5 BS, It would be nice to have a little more lip on those.
      Thanks.......Eric..

      The lip does not change with backspacing, the backspacing is machined away from the backside of the mounting flange. And i can tell you no way will you clear with 5.5" of backspacing unless you plan on the tire sitting below the wheel well opening, in all honesty if i had more like 6 3/8" of backspacing i could fit a 10 inch wide wheel. A quarter inch more backspacing would have been perfectly centered in the wheel well. I'm taking the rears to have the tires mounted tomorrow so i will post a pic.

      There was about 1" more lip on my 9.5s than the 8.5s, but I see in your pic it looks less than mine. That is weird.




      John, I have pics earlier in this thread. But motortopia (the hosting site) has been down a lot lately. Maybe you missed them.

      There are a bunch of backspacing options. I'm running a little more backspacing than normal to be sure the tires will tuck when I drop it lower: 20mm offset front, 12 rear. The backspacing options is why I pulled the trigger. They should fit perfect for what I want to do.
