NordicDawn 7 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 Hello, I finally made the decision to go with body colored steel wheels on our 1970 Mustang with 1970 dogdish hubcaps (see example attachment). Wheel Vintiques sell the correct looking Series62 steel wheels. I want to fit 15x7 with 235/60 tires in front, and 15x8 with 255/60 in the back. The problem i'm having is finding the correct backspacing. Does anyone have the same setup and/or can tell me what the correct backspacing is? So far I found that 4.5BS in the back is pretty standard, but for the front i'm reading posts mentioning 3.75 to 4.5. Thanks for the help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lanky 44 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 4.5 to about 4.25" backspacing will work with a 7" wide wheel in front. With 4" or less you would have your front tires very close to the fenders if not touching. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NordicDawn 7 Report post Posted July 16, 2017 Okay, thank you for the reply. Good to hear that it should be about 4.25/4.50"BS, Wheel Vintiques can't deliver a wheel with 3.75BS so that had me worried a little. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
