95 Ranger 2wd 16x8 5x4.5 4: Backspace

[jmkissler]

Hey all! I picked up a Ranger recently. The wheels it currently has are a mismatched set of 14's. After looking at tire prices, I decided it would be in my best interest to pick up a set of 16" wheels so that tires are easier to find.

Will the specs in the title work for me? The part I don't understand, as far as fitment is the backspace. I would like to make sure I have no tire rub.
