Cip1 has some 7x17 Fuchs Replicas. Shows to have 5.5" back spacing. They are right at $200 each. Wonder how they would work on a narrow body? I would post a link but I am computer challenged.

they will work but total tire width cant exceed 9 inches or so and you will most likely need some spacer or they will rub the inner fender.
Put it this way....properly centered, a 7 inch wheel with hoosiers (the fat boy of tires) will fit....but just barely.. that setup leave about a 1/4 inch on the inner fender and about the same on the outer fender. Rich |
