I need some help from anyone with this set-up or advice please??
Looking to purchase a set of Weld RT-S 71's in 17"

Fronts 17x5" Like to try the new MT Sportsman SR Radials in 28x6.00/ R17

Rears (where all my questions are) I see most everyone has the 17x10 rears...however I really want a deeper face on the rears and seems like the 7.2 backspacing is what everyone has and on the ZL1 usually has no issue with fitment. I'll be running the M&H 325/45R17 DR Racemaster's and would like to know of anyone with 10.5 or 11' rears with this tire set-up? Weld can make the 10.5" with a 7.2" or 6.7" back space which will make the wheel stick out further either 1 inch or 1/2" more depending on backspace choosen (thus giving a deeper face) Before I order a set/mount/balance, mock up I'd really like to know who's running this and if it will work or not? I've searched everywhere I could and contacted Weld.. They cant tell me either

Thanks for all and all help!
