I'm not sure what the backspacing is...but I'm sure a search would let you know so when you order your wheels you'll get the right offset The Federal Government has not yet learned that you cannot legislate morality 1970 Coronet R/T FF4/FF8/V85/V1G 440/Auto/3.23 1970 Coronet R/T FK5/FK5/V8W/V1W 440/Auto/3.55 1970 Super Bee TX9/TX9/V8W/N96 383/Auto/3.91 1975 Duster 360 VS29L5 Daily Driver

They are essentially a 15x7" rim with another 1" ov dish.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

(Stockers, black, w/ drag radials, W.V. painted body color, on my '62 Ply.) They are ring mounted, too, which is a nice feature to keep drums and rotors from warping (bottom pix). Top is '68-down "pad mount" style steelie. BOTH are hubcentric. Rick

They were like the first pic from E-Booger with the 5 extra holes. The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
