Wow..that's a wide rim! I have a 17" x 9½" rim with 5½" BS and they fit perfectly...so..with as 12" wide rim..I think you'd need like 8" of backspacing.

What eactly do you mean will they fit?

Bolt Pattern 5 on 5.

The wheel will stick out about 1" past the rear wheel well outer edge.

I have 15x10's w/ 4-1/2" BS on the rear and they line up almost perfectly with the wheel well edge.

Bolt um up and find out?
I had 17/9.5 with 5.5 backspece ithink, they were for a 88-98 chevy.. They were reel close on the inside, about 1.5in or so, kinda rubbed when goin into steep drive ways on an angle, but only on the inside of the inner fender well, but on the out side edge i had about 2 or 2.5 inches to work with so they could be close, should look killer if they work..

Are those American Racing Torque Thrust II ? If so, you may be incorrect about them being 17"x 12" wheels. They are probably 17"X11", They don't show them in a 12" width....

I thought so. I had recently been on their site looking at them myself. I decided to go with Billet Specialties "Vintec" instead.

The AR Torque Thrust II is a sweet classic wheel. Did you find out if they will fit?
