Will I need spacers for 17in wheels?

I am planning on ordering the ARE Torque Thrust 2 wheels for my '92. Will I need spacers for them or will they come fit for my need?

They'll be fine as long as you order the right backspacing. I think it's 5.5". Hopefully some wheel expert will chime in soon.

4.5 front and 5.5 rear works quite well. i have 6.5 on my rear but the inner fender has to be moded. this way you can run a wider tire like a 295 and still have it line up perfect with the fronts as well as have the wheels up in the well. otherwise you may have to roll you outer fender lip depending on the width of the rim and the size profile of tire your using.
