When you say "correct backspacing" on a 16x10, do you mean 'not stick out' or 'as far in as possible and still clear the stock disk brakes'?
Centerline can build you a set for a decent price, but be forewarned, they are slow and may not build them to your requested specs. I have had them build me two sets of rears and the backspacing has been wrong both times. Then the second set, even though they are 16", the step in the hoops will not clear the brake calipers.

Can you give me the specs on the good set that fit, and a contact to call ?
By the way, I run Centerline for Street rims, so I called them last summer about making front skinny's. The owner told me he couldn't (or wouldn't).

Call their sales line, you will get either Louis or Louie (2 different guys). You will want 7" backspace if you want to tuck a 16x10. Attached is a pic of my 16x9.5 with 6" bs. There is only about a finger width between the wheel and banjo bolt on the inside.

Figured I'd bump this up again. I called holeshot about some 6 lug 15s and they said they can offer sunflare, force, hole pro 1&2 in 15x10 and can make them 6.5" back space. And they run 399 a wheel so this might be a cheaper alternative to bogarts.
And the sunflare and force wheel designs are 6 spoke...

Thanks for sharing the info. I was really hoping the hole star was going to be on the 6-spoke design list. The sunflare may not be a bad 6-spoke design if they narrowed the spokes a little. Are they by chance sending you any pics of the 6-spoke designs? Did you happen to ask if the same 6-spoke designs were available in their 1 piece front runners?
