Summit has a really good sale on Greg Weld wheels I am looking at a set of 17 x7 with 4" of back spacing. I have a brand new set of 245/45 17 tires I want to put on them. Looking for opinions if they will fit or not. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/GWM-93-770347C/

the link works for me.... Just measure the backspacing of your stock rim. It's a 17x7...

I like those rims also. They look different than most.
