I know this is a common question, and I know that I have even answered this at times, but I'm just checking before I buy. My tires are finally just about shot, and I promised myself that I would buy wheels when I needed tires next. I presently have 16 inch wheels, but between tire availability and selection, I think I need to move to 17 inchers this time.
I'm looking at Torque Thrust II wheels, but I'll check again. I like the retro look, and I like to show off the front discs (rear at some point). I have always liked wheels that "disappear" when going down the road, which almost requires an open spoke design. I was thinking of going for 275/40/17 tires on 9.5 or 10 inch rims (5.5 inch backspace?) all around, if at all possible. Can I do this with wheels that could be rotated from front to rear, or do I need different backspace for this combo? Who out there has the same setup at all four corners, and what are you using? Should I go for a different size? Thoughts? Pictures?
