Wheel Back spacing???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HotRod929 · 04-02-2002, 07:47 PM

I have a 1970 Chevy C-20 and i wanted to put 15x10 wheels on the back and I was wondering if anyone knew what back spacing i need to order on the wheel. I am getting the wheels from American Racing and I think they are going to be the AR-23 model. Any help would greatly be apreciated. Thankx

The 15x10's on my daily driver is 4 1/4 but I have also ordered a set of 15x10's with 4 1/2 but have not got them yet.

How do they fit on the outside of the wheel well. What size tires are you running.
