So that would mean "0" offset would be at a 3" backspace. The difference is then 38mm which divided by 25mm (~1 inch) i would have 1.52 inches.

So that would give me a total of about 4.52 inches of backspacing on a vert wheel

so they "should" work. yay! Now just waiting around for the kit to arrive.

so after checking they are 6.5" wheels so i will rerun some numbers then.

15"x6.5" with a +38 offset.

so "0" offset would be about 3.25" backspace. So in total, 3.25" plus 1.52" inch would give 4.77" backspacing. That is a bit over what will easily fit, so a space will be needed, but not TOO bad of a size. Ill probably run a slightly stretched tire on it with something like a 45 sidewall. Ill see what clears from there.
