Has anyone purchased the 17x8 cruizin concepts classic series polished wheels?
I am looking at purchasing these pretty soon but haven't seen any reviews...

I'd like to confirm the backspacing as well but their customer support was not very helpful. They said it was 5.2 and that doesnt make any sense.

At least you got a reply, I sent an email about them when I was looking for rims and never even got a reply. I ended up going with a set of Summit Racing wheels.

Here is a link to the Summit wheels in 17", I went with 15s. They are also available in gunmetal.

i went with the american racing. here is a link. i bought them from discount tire and there customer service is pretty good. i think you can also use the discount direct phone ordering system and get them a liuttle cheaper then you can from the stores. I went with 17 x 8 and a 4.5" backspace. i am 235/40/17 on the front and a 245/45/17 on rear. they are a perfect fit

So has anyone actually purchased these wheels....

Looking at the dodgestang chart I'm not even too sure a 4.5 backspacing will fit well on my 65...

When I was looking for wheels for my 65 I'm pretty sure I called Cruzin Concepts and asked about those wheels. If I remember correctly, the 17x8's were 4.5" backspacing. I had the same concern about that not being enough backspacing. I went with Coys C-55's. My rears are 17x8 with 245/45/R17 tires. They're supposedly 4.75" backspacing but I still have rubbing issues on one side. I'd be cautious about trying to use 4.5" backspacing on a 65.

They actually told me 5.2 backspacing..... I know that wont work.
