https://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html this link has ALL the information regarding how and where a tire ends up when it is connected to the lugs. Basically, back spacing is how far the edge of the RIM (not the tire) is away from the mounting flange.

Back spacing is a wheel term. It is the back spacing of the wheel, to allow a larger tire to fit in the wheel well. It is built into the rim, so you have to order them with the proper backspacing, or officially called negative offset. A tire and wheel shop will have a tool that they can bolt onto your car, to determine maximun allowable offset, when ordering wheels.
