Default A different 17" wheel question

I bought a set of 17x8" rally IIs from YearOne today and may have made a mistake! The wheels advertised in their catalog have a 4.5" backspacing but the ones I bought have a 4.25" backspacing. Do Y'all think that will be a problem when I try to put them on my 67 GTO?

Fyr,
If I were you (and I am) I would take those wheels back to year One and tell them I wanted to wait until the 4.5" backspaced ones come out. I heard they will be available in a few months.

Hey man,
Thanks for the good advice. That is just what I did. They did not give me any trouble and were very pleasant to deal with. I really like these wheels and can't wait until the new ones come in.

Your welcome. I really like those wheels myself and will also get a set when the new ones come out!

LOL

Talking to yourself is one thing, and answering is another, but posting in a forum to yourself is scary, real scary.

It looks like you got your answer so I won't offer any. I didn't have any advise anyway. LOL
