Can someone tell me if a 17x10.5 rim with a 44mm offset work ok on the rear of my GT.. Does any one have pics of there car with them??

 

That's cutting it close. You need to be sure you have at least7" backspace clearance. Measure from the plane of the rotor face to the shock and to the LCA. If it's at least 7", you're OK.

 

OK, 44mm offset, but whats the backspacing? [&:]

 

Wheel Width / 2 + Rim Lip Thickness + Offset = Backspace
10.5/2 + 0.5 + 1.73 = 7.48

So roughly 7.5" BS.

 

What the... since when do we do any kind of math on these forums. That hurt my head.

 

No pain, no gain.

 

im guessing the BS on the end of your equation stands for bull shyt, rim lip thickness? lol

 

Quoted wheel width is bead to bead. Backspace is from the mounting surface to the OUTER Edge of the wheel.
Usually a 10.5" wheel is around 11.5" measured from extreme outer edges of the wheel lip (the portion of the wheel that protrudes outward to avoid cutting the tire).
