[T3] Another wheel question


I know people have said that there was no official
15x5.5 wheel put on our cars, which was the answer I
got for my last question, so I guess I should be a
little more exact. 

The 15x5.5 4-lug OE-style wheels have a 4-1/4 inch
"backspacing" according to CIP1, while the 15x4.5
4-lug OE-style wheels have a 4-1/2 inch "backspacing."

Is backspacing the same as offset, and would these
values make them a proper fit for a Squareback?
