I'm going to order some V5's today, but I have a quick question before I do. All I want to do is replace the factory rims I have, so I am wondering if those rims are a direct replacement or if they have different backspacing or not? Thanks.

cool, thanks! I found on the site I'm ordering from that they are 4". I see that the factory backspace is 5.25". I plan on just getting the 15x7, so are there any things I should be concerned about going from 5.25" to 4" backspacing? Currently running 235/75/15, eventually going to switch to 30's(not for a while, my current tires are less than a year old). Also is there any reason I would want to get the 15x8 instead?
