If Jukebox is 2wd, and those rims sit like that I'd say they're in the 4.5" BS range. If he's 4wd then they're 6".

At most you'd have to crank half an inch in the front to clear stock size tires on a 4.5" backspaced rim. You may also want some spacers in the rear to even out your track width.

my cragars were 15 x 7 with 4'' of backspacing... so they stuck out 2'' and they didn't rub... they did grind the against the caliper a little but i shaved some off so they didn't grind at all. They didnt make the wheels rub though.
