Looking at the wheels on my 2015 Touring it would appear as though I have 14×6 fronts with a 4" backspace (4+2 config) and 14×7 rear with a 5" backspace (5+2 config) Sound correct?
Eventually I plan to make a tire change. I’ll probably do 26 or 27’s in either a 9 or 10" front and 11-12" rear. I was hoping to stick with an inexpensive OE wheel, but in my experience, most aftermarket tires tend to be a bit wider than OE. My preference has always been to have a 7" wheel in front and 8" rear to more closely match the section width of the tires.
Looking at the clearance it would seem that if I add a wider setup I need to keep the same backspace and shift the additional inch outwards? In other words a 4+3 front and 5+3 rear. Either that or stick with OE wheels and space them out a bit?
My tire of choice would be Vampires, but it looks like they aren’t going to do 14" versions.
