Default Backspacing? From Stock
Ok so per my research, backspacing on all factory wheels is 6.25" this is what I have on my stock Rubi.

I plane to buy a wheel with 4.53" of back spacing.

This is the same result as me putting 1.5", well 1.72, spacers on my stock wheels. So buy my desired wheels saves me buying spacers?

Thanks I thought I understood that correctly, and I tried searching and found a lot of info, I just couldn't find a post by someone as dense as me.
