Can _anyone_ help me find the backspace of a Mazda 8BF2371920 wheel from 1986-88?

My Hollander lists it as 15x6, 5 on 4.5". But it lists no backspace or offset.

Thanks

I'd estimate the offset at over an inch, if that's off one of their passenger cars. Used a similar set of wheels on an autocross car. They don't work on A-bodies.

Well, now might be a nice time to cry! :cry: Very nice wheel I think. And if I turned it upside down no one could read the name MAZDA on it. :wink:

Let's see, 1 inch offset. That would be 2" out front. That mount sure looks more out front than that, like it would be more than a 1 inch offset. Weird how looks can be decieving. I guess the bolt holes are just deep.

Thanks
