On a 14" wide wheel-it will measure 15" outer edge to outer edge--backspacing will be from back of hub to outer edge on back of wheel--so u wood have 11 1/2 " from back of hub-(face of drum ) to the outer lip of wheel-U can measure from your brake face out 11 1/2 " and that would be where wheel lip would be-remember you will also have at least 1" of tire pooch added to that!! jim
