the bolt pattern is 5x4.75 and i beleive that 1 1/4" spacers in the rear will even out the stance.

thanx. how do u measure the bolt pattern? and i plan on putting them on all 4 wheels and adding the extenda flares.

im not exactly sure how to measure bolt patterns, im sure if you googled it youll find a way. have you thought about finding new rims with a different backspacing instead of using spacers? i think new rims with a different BS would be a much safer option IMO.

ya but im only 15 and im finnancialy chalenged haha would 1/2 ich spacers be enough or would that hardly even be noticible?

if you go with 2" spacers on the rear and 1.5" up front you should be fine, if anything you might need longer studs in the rear but thats a cheap and easy project.

ok thanxs, would it be stupid to like stick a washer on the lugs and then put my wheel on?
