Wheel offset Question?

So I found a set of these for 400 bucks locally. They are 20 and they say that the offset is +20. I can make out what that means but I am wondering if i can put these on my 67 Chevy. I do have a CPP disc conversion on the front. So the front is already out a little more than stock. I was thinking that I would get some spacers for the back to even the stance out.

Do you think that this will work.

Re: Wheel offset Question?

Nice wheels. Your concern will be hub bore size. Probably too small on the wheels.
How wide are they.

Hmmm, I didn't think of that. They are 8.5" wide i believe. do the newer trucks have a smaller bore size?

Re: Wheel offset Question?

From what I could find on these rims the center bore is 108, I would guess millimeters.

Re: Wheel offset Question?

Might be close on the bore. Stock is close to that. If they're 8.5 inches wide the backspace is about 5.5 inches. Stock rims are about 4". Might be tucked in too close to your suspension. Best to look for a wheel that's centered better.
