Could anyone tell or provide a picture description of what a rim of these measurements would look like: Rim Diameter (in): 15 in. Rim Width (in): 8.00 in. Backspacing (in): 3.750 in. Offset (mm): -19.00mm
3.75 BS would fit our cars, but IMO they would look better with 4.25-4.5" BS. The 8" rim needs to be tucked deeper because it is so wide. Again, just my opinion... Fitment depends a great deal on tire size too. What tire size you thinking of? 235 to 275 wide would all fit an 8" wide rim.
I want to use a 295/50/15 tire in the rear, but I was just curious on what this rim size would look like.
Depending on your tire, a 4.5 backspacing may rub on your leaf spring. It did on my 77. 4.25 is the max I would go just to be safe.
Sorry, premature post. The attached pic in my previous post is of my 77 with 265 50 15 BFG's on 15x8's with 4.5 BS - very close to the springs. I would guess that a 295 50 would rub with 4.5 BS.
Thanks,Funny thing is I Don't like the blue.When i repaint it will be either a very Dark saphire blue or Black. Derek.
just go to your nearest salvage yard using powerlink (hollander for computers) and ask em if they have one, prob no, but ask them for a print out of what the wheel looks like
That would look good too. I thought about respraying mine white and putting the black gt stripes back on it, or like a metallic silver w/gt stripes and small bumpers like yours. That would be awesome
I think we got off my subject a little. But none the less all your wheels look great. I just need help with and image of the wheel measurements I provided to ya'll.
