Reply to "Wheel fitment"

OEM 8" and 10" Campi's both have 5-1/4" backspacing. Back when tires were available, I knew Pantera owners who had aftermarket wheels made in the same sizes with 5 1/2" backspacing and they were fine. I wouldn't use any more backspacing than that however, in the widths you're talking about. Be aware, altering the track width at one end, relative to the other, can drastically effect balance. If you know what you're doing, you can alter the track width to improve handling but if you don't, stay as close to tried-and-true wheel and tire specifications as possible.

Why not just bite-the-bullet and buy a set of 17", 18" or 17"/18" Campi clones from one of our Vendors? How much can you really save by buying a cheap set of generic wheels that aren't made for a Pantera. It can't be that much; certainly not a significant amount. Most of the Campi clones are far less expensive than high-end three piece wheels like HRE, Kinesis, Forgeline or ADV-1.
