Looking to put some AR TTM's on a '69 Chevelle, lowered 2". I've checked the sites database and see many have put the 17x8s (4.5" bs) :cool:on their '69's with no problems or spacers required. I'd like to put 17x10s on the rear and have heard some say that I'd need spacers, others say not. So tell me...do I need spacers if I want to run 17x10s on the rear with a 5.5" bs?

5.5 backspacing is perfect with a 10" rim, no spacer is required.
