What's the Backspace for 17" wheels/ W/ 6" lift kits.

I bought a set of 17"- Centerline wheels and went down to Discount Tire to have them mounted when they called. Guess what? Didn't fit, their Centerline website even stated for 17" wheels 4.75 would fit. The wheel rubbed against the brake caliper and offset the center from lining up. I'm thinking maybe 4.5 backspacing is the correct fit but maybe Centerline made some bad wheels. I don't know. Looks like I have to wait till Tuesday to get some answers.

Anyone have anything to say about Titan backspacing for 6 inch lifted trucks with 17" wheels?

Found this on another thread.

OK, can somebody tell me if these widths, offsets, and backspacing combinations will work without sticking out too far and without rubbing if I went with a fairly aggressive and large 33" tire.

They are for the KMC Hoss
