what is the backspace of stock steel rims. will rims with 3 1/4 backspace fit on a sprite?

I believe stock backspace is 3 1/4" but I cannot remember for sure. If you're interested in the moss minataur wheels, they're the same backspace as stock, so .5" more wheel sticks out. This can cause rear fender issues, so rolling or grinding may be necessary, depending on the size of your tire.
