            generally its the offset of the lug seat or "backspacing". most of the time you can fit rwd wheels on a fwd car (it would look goofy as hell sticking way out) but ive never seen anyone make a fwd wheel fit on a rwd car.

              Our cars have a high positive offset rim anyway, don't they? Like a +45 or something. That's pretty damn close to what most FWD cars run, if I'm not mistaken.

                ours are a "kind of in between" offset. closer to fwd, but far from rwd. i was in a pinch once and used a wheel from a 78 trans am as a spare to make it home. it worked, but stuck out severely.

                after that i got a factory spare :)

                  You could use rwd rims with a widebody kit, but the steering would be a bit off. :D

                    ive seen FWD wheels on fbodys with like a 40mm offset, worked fine. also a 7.5" will hold a 245 tire
