Wheel Back Spacing
I hope this is the correct forum
I've got a noob question. I'm looking to see if some wheels fit but I'm not sure if the back spacing would be correct. The wheel is 15x8 5x5.5 and 4 inches of back spacing. Is this correct for a 1970 f100?
Thanks

Yes, that is the same spec on the rear of my '70 F100 LB. In front I have 15x7s with the same 4-inch BS.
FWIW, tires are 275/60 and 225/70, rear and front respectively.

Thanks bud.. she's got a few bugs that need to be worked out but it's all good. Her warts are natural... well, except for the punctured hood... an agricultural combine backed into it.

Yes they will.... but to me they look odd. I suggest a 235/60 tire on a 15x7 wheel. Your opinion may vary...
