Holeshot Question

[anticubicle]

I recently received a pair of 15"x10" holeshots as payment for a job I did. I'd have preferred cash but I was told these were brand new and were for an S197.

Not entirely sure since they were not in a box and there were no papers stating what exactly they were. I'm sure they're brand new and have never been mounted.

Question is, how can I tell what the backspacing is? How can I tell if they're actually the right wheels for my car?

I saw the thread on 15" wheel fitment and if I do not need to do anything besides mount the tires to the wheels (which I have my old set of ET Street Radials sitting in the garage waiting), then I'm golden!

Here is a link that shows you how to measure backspacing.

TYVM I'll give it a shot.

Also, just relocating the sway-bar is all that is needed to run the Holeshots

Oh, I was under the impression that I didn't even need to do that.

If these are indeed the correct backspace, will I not need spacers at all? Will my current tires fit without rubbing? (MT ET Radials 255-60-15)

255/60/15 is a little narrow on a 10" Holeshot wheel....

The Holeshot wheel's for the S197's are 7 7/8" backspace, and are suppose to come with the 7/8" spacer's to work on the S197's...

Ah, well in that case I'll need to sell the tires and try and get new ones.

These did not come with spacers

So either way, I will definitely need spacers + swaybar relocation bracket?

Yeah you will need spacers to clear the brakes and the swaybar relocation brackets on any 15x10 wheel.

Gotcha. Guess these aren't going on any time soon...
