Wheel offset/backspace ... swap ideas.

I'm trying to find the backspace and offset numbers to replace my 16" split rims with 16" 8-6.5 steels. I started to search the forums for backspace/offset numbers and got dizzy. Anyone know...

1. Backspace and Offset for 1965 F250 16"?

2. What year Ford and Dodge 16" 8-6.5 are stock wheel swap possibilities offset being fairly equal?

3. What's the difference between "innie" and "outtie" hubcaps?

Mysteries of the universe 'til you ask FTE.

Thanks.
- Bob

If you have a wheel off just measure yours, lay a streight edge across the back of the wheel on the lip of the rim and measure down to the mounting surface and that will be your back spacing. The smaller the back space, the further the wheel will stick out.
