Just looked the wheel up on JEGS and with my best guess it is a 15x8 and 3" backspacing. I have the WELD ProStar in a 15x8 with 3.5" backspacing and the 3" inboard kit on my 71 duster. We have to watch how tall of a tire that we put on but overall nice look and fits good. Hope it helps.

Most of the stocker rearends are narrowed a little. Can't really tell to the naked eye but that way you can put a 10" rim on the car and spread out the 9" radial for a bigger footprint. I have a set of wheels that look just like that sitting in the floor. I'll try and measure the back spacing.

I say a 10" rim with a 4" back space,,,but I am a little concerned with his front end alignment.

This is one of the few truisms in this entire thread....well , except for the notion that the original question is silly. I am being generous there.
Like previously noted........you ask this question and call us morons ?
This sheds a good bit of light on your capabilities.
The best answer you could possibly get , unless it was answered by the guy who screwed the car together , is lawn dart logic at best.
i.e. the answers will be all over the place , but maybe......just maybe , one of them will hit the bulls eye.

you know mr peabody I would expect a real answer from you,unlike the all the other morons that are just talking out of their blow whole, its not my car, I like the way that wheel looks and yes Im asking.




I know I'm a MORON but Mike that was a low blow out of you.
Now back to the off-set, I think its a 14 inch wide wheel with a 10 inch off-set because those "stock class" racers are a tricky bunch with lots of tricks up their sleeves.

And who will get the blame when the wheels don't fit.

This takes the cake. In all my years here I don't think I've seen a dumber question asked. First, the blatant ignorance with the question itself (which cannot be answered with any specificity due to unknowns and variables), then the indignation with the answers he got.

Simply amazing...

Come on guys....lighten up... in his mind it was a
appropriate question(I think) but as many have stated..
its gonna be nothing but a guess... maybe someone MIGHT
get a good guess... but myself I would NEVER order
a set of wheels based on a guess... even if the guess
was right.... but what do I know... I'm just another MORON

I can't read what the number is on the window, go post this picture on www.classracer.com and someone can likely put you in touch with the owner. That way there is no guessing.

He's been a member for a whopping 9 days, too... eventually he'll figure out that blasting people who are trying to help is counterproductive.

My '72 Dart rear wheelwells aren't even quite the same width on both sides (homemade minitubs by a previous owner). With 295-50R15's in the back I had to do a lot of measuring. No way just to eyeball it and order rims...
