And no, i don't know the backspace (because I don't know how to do all that).

I really should've just watched some youtube videos and done all this stuff myself. I'm not completely worthless around a car and a tape measure.
Im taking a look now.

But when i look at what's available to me, there's no aluminum 15" Rally. I have access to a 17" Aluminum Rally.....are you familiar with the Salt Flat Special? Similar, not the same, but similar. Can do those in a 15".

Here's the recommended back spacing for the front, as per American Racing:

15x7 = 3-3/4" Back Space
17x7 = 4" Back Space
17x8 = 4.5"-4-3/4" Back Space.

If you're willing to do a 17" Aluminum Rally, that's model number VN506 and they currently have 17x8" blanks available.

If you wanna take a look at the the Salt Flat Special, that's a VN471. Those can be done in a 15".
