Factory wheel backspacing

I can't seem to find the info, what is the factory wheel backspacing? 4 or 4.5 inches ? They are 16x7 wheels if I remember right.

I like the bigger holes in the second ones but I also like the all black, anything out there like that Dave? I've seen some advertized as being teflon coated, does that help keep em clean or is it a gimmick?

There are some available. Just not from where I'm looking at getting them. I've got some gift cards and discounts to use up at Summit Racing. I was debating on getting polished wheels and painting/clear coating them, as I like the all black too but not too sure of the flat/small holes on the racelines.
Let me do some looking n ill post back In a bit

This is about it for all black. They aren't too bad either. Something a bit different anyways.


If these where black, I'd prob get these.





Actually after looking at the spoked ones on some Superdutys l think I like them the best. They come in a 16x10 with 4.5 inches of backspacing. I think they would look nice. Or maybe jump to a 18x10, but they have 5 inches of backspacing.
