It\'s just the rear yes, got 205\'s on the front but eventually getting some 8" on the back. So don\'t want to be paying twice. If that makes sence?

Oh if they\'ll fit I\'ll just go for 205\'s then, I thought maybe 205\'s wouldn\'t fit 8\'s without some stretch. Thanks for that, still not great with wheels only recenty learned about offsets :Giggle
