I ordered from Summit a 15x7 rallye wheel, advertised at the OEM b/s of 4.25 " when it arrived I couldn`t get my original 15x7 trim ring to fit.It hit the center and stuck out 1/4 beyond the norm . Upon measuring the back spacing I find it closer to 4.5" b/s ?? They sent we another wheel{same part #} with the same issues. I compared it to a wheel I had gotten from WV in 2005 and IT fits fine and measures 4.25' b/s???, Seems to me they adjusted the back spacing to accommodate the 15x6,5 trim ring .... ??I also notice the hoop supplier may be different as it now has stamping of size etc on hoop. The outside to outside measurement is also 1/4 inch narrower than an original wheel, which also effects the gap to the trim ring. Leading up to the question am I the first to experience this and has anyone tried Stocktons Rallye wheels?? What GIVES ??

Specialty Wheels ralley wheels have a 4 1/4 backspace , as they should , trim rings will fit , as they should. Enough said.
