    Default 15x10 4 inch BS w/ 8.8?

    Has anyone ran this backspace on a sn95? If so, would anyone know the wheel to wheel measurment, I am narrowing the rear in it now, i could wait for the rims to get here to get the measurement but i would like to know if anyone has done it and if you have pics of a 15x10 4 inch bs on a mustang, thanks.

    You are obviously doing a mini-tub rt? I run a 6.5" back spacing on mine and with a 28x 10.50. They are really close on the inside

    Why narrow it for a 15x10? you can fit a 325 tire on an sn95 with no trouble at all. unless your mini tubbing it to run a monster tire there isnt much point to narrow it unless you just want a big deep dish look. Mine was shortened 3/4 of an inch and i was running a 15x10 with 6" back spacing. with a 325 mickey thompson drag radial. which kind of matches cravens numbers because normal backspacing for a 15x10 is 6.5"s

    I wasn't planing on it Lol, I figured to have it shortened a few inches to help save on some weight and what not. It's bascules the same size as a fox rear end now

    It was my frist time trying to figure out back spacing. I do want a big deep dish look. I don't have my wheels yet but was using a 15x10 bogart RT wheel and that has a 6.5 bs. When I put the wheel where it needed to be in the center of the the opening and had a 1.25 inch gap from the back of the wheel to the axle flang so I took 6.5-1.25=5.25 back spacing to work. Hope it turns out right cuz of the price of the rear rims costed me lol they where exspincive as hell lol
