Ridetech wheel sizes
So I have a 74 and put in a ridetech suspension with bear brakes. I'm now trying to figure out new rims and tires and I'm curious what other people have out on. Currently I'm looking at 245/40/19 on the front and 285/35/19 in the back. The only thing I'm having trouble figuring out is the backspace and offset. Any help would be great thanks.

Not going to move the thread since he has already posted it in C3 Tech, but am going to close this one.
