Great info but the rear wheel well measurement seems very low (1 + 2). I measure somewhere around 12 1/2" and you got 11 3/8". Am I missing something? Front measured almost exactly 10 1/4".

1 inch = 25.4 mm so a wheel 1 inch smaller would be set in 12.7 mm at the same offset. With a 6 mm offset difference the 8.5 inch wheel will be set in 6.7 mm more then the 9.5 inch wheel. This comes to a little over 1/4" which is not a big difference. To have the same look the 8.5 inch wheel would need a 22 - 23 mm offset
