Rim identification
I recently shattered one of my rims in a car accident and am in the process of replacing it. It looks like a AR 172 Baja and is 15x7 with 3.75 in backspaing. I ordered what I thought was a replacement from quadratrac. When it arrived it looks to have only 3.25 in backspaing which I didnt even know was avaliable. When I looked at my reciept it says it has 3.25 in backspacing but on quadratrac it is listed as 3.75 in backspacing. There is a set of numbers on the back of my old rim that read CPC 049056. Can I use that to find what I am looking for. If not will .5 inches of backspacing make any difference if I use the new one. Any and all help will be appreciated!

i couldnt find anything and the new rim says it has a -6mm offset so it has to be 3.75 in backspacing because thats what -6mm is on a 7 in rim. right?
