The Spacers are 7/8" front, 1-1/2" on the rear. Backspacing for both wheels are +35mm. Both the front, and rears need work to make them fit. If the occasional rub bathers you, go a little smaller width. :twisted:

Boy, talk about raising the dead! :mrgreen:
I noticed Scott's car while going through the tire and wheel sticky.
Thought I would ask Scott how the wheel and tire combo worked for you in the long term. Are you still using the same wheels and tire size? (assuming you still have the panel wagon after 11 years)
An update would be appreciated.
