16" x 8", 5 x 4.5-4.75" Bolt Circle, 4.5" Backspace? And if not, what will? Thanks

I think those are the exact specs of the wheels on my 3rd gen... i think u gotta have like 7.5" backspacing on any 4th gen, i could be wrong.

 

The stock 16x8 wheel on the 4th Gen is about a 6-5/8" backspace. Using a wheel with a 4.5" BS will move the wheels out about 2" further than the stock wheels, putting the outer edge of the tire outside the fender line.

Just to give you a visual reference, they will stick out about 1-1/4" more than the wheels in this photo - it will look like the car is riding on some sort of "outriggers":

For an 8" wide wheel on a 4th Gen, you want a backspace in the range of 5.5 - 6.5".
