    Diamond Racing 14x8

    Diamond racing wheels, 14" x 8" 195/60 or 205/60 for a little stretch. I am guessing a 5" backspacing will put the wheel about flush with the fender. Someone tell me if I am right or wrong. And what kind of clearance problems will I have? Just the caliper bracket that I can grind down? Also... I can get studs from TMS or IE, then use their 60 degree lug nuts correct?

      I saw that but didnt want to threadjack. I figured different backspacing might make things different. Also, different size rim so tire size would need to be different.

          Then a 195/60 on the 14x8 with 5" backspacing would stretch a little correct?
