just wondering if 15X10 prostars w/ 6.5 inch backspacing and a 4.75 bolt pattern will work for my car? has anyone done this before? if so, how did it look?

thanks!

Re: Pro Stars

Most people use the 7.5" backspace. That keeps the edge of the tire fully under the fender. You will need to grind the edges of the brake calipers to clear the inner edge of the wheel center disc, and you will need longer studs.

If you do a "search" you should be able to find pictures that I've posted of the 7.5" BS and of the required caliper grindings. For some reason, Summit doesn't list the 7.5" BS in the catalog, but they do sell them.
