i just found these as i was looking for some custom wheels that are wide enough for a 28x11x16 slick and i found these. looks like you can order custom backspacing. do you think the 16x9.5 with 6.0 backspacing would fit and not stick out past the finders

What vehicle are they going on? They won't fit on your 2003 RCSB because the bolt pattern is only 5 lugs. Can you order a custom bolt pattern or something? Good looking wheel, no doubt. How much do they weigh?

The problem with fitting 16"wheels with a lot of back spacing is sometimes the "drop center" of the wheel. That's the depression in the rim used to help install the tire. Most are in the center of the wheel to make it easy and it starts to hit the caliper when moved inward. Look at a factory steel wheel it's near the outside, thats why widening these should not interfere with the caliper, aftermarket is another story.
