Rally wheel back spacing? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jwn1975 · 05-29-2008, 03:43 AM

Can someone tell me what rally wheels I have? They are 15" five lug 2wd truck rallys. I need to know what width they are and the back spacing. I measured the BS and looks to me 3.75" or 4". Can someone tell me the right width and back spacing? I dont want to dismount the tire.

Thanks in advance

Three different widths. 6.5" (van ralleys), 7" and 8". The 7" have 3 5/8" BS. The 6.5" and 8" have 4" BS.

Are you measuring from the lip on the inside between the lug holes to the very inner edge? I',m getting just a smidge under 4"
Thanks

Lay a straight edge across the back of the wheel. Measure down to the contact point of the wheel center. Backspacing is from the mounting flange of the wheel to the most inside edge. Makes sense. This is the measurement you want for wheel clearance.

Gotcha, mounting face or flange to the inner most edge of the wheel.
Thanks I knew i was close.
