Wheel Backspacing
I'm looking at these wheels

American Racing 236885 American Racing AR-23 Wheels - Free Shipping on All Orders @ JEGS

But trying to understand the backspacing. Will these fit on my 66 f100?

I fought with this too and decided on 3.5" BS to get the tire closer to the outer fender lip. I'm lowered though. You'll most likely be fine if stock height.
