Wheel Question

I just got my Vintiques wheels 14-5605334 & 14-5805042. I've been waiting for them since July. The rears are 15"x 8" with 4.5" Backspacing. I'm running 275/60R15 now on different rims.

Will the new rim and tire combination fit with stock bed and fenders?

I have wheel vintiques on my truck, I don’t remember the model number or back spacing. I’m running 275 60 R15’s also.

Thanks Dennis. Are your hub caps innies or outties?

They’re innies. I bought 5 hubcaps and 4 trim rings. If you look at the spare, it’s an original 16” wheel with an original trim ring. The tire came with the truck when I bought it in 1978.
