I am having a C body housing cut to fit my Barracuda so I can taylor the width accordingly so this is why I am trying to see with the 4.25 backspacing where I have have the drum to drum measurement come in at. If you have 8.5" rims and are at the outer fender with your tires then with a 7" rim...

Thank you for the pictures. Looks like you have about 1.5" or so of clearance on the leaf spring side. Id that about right? The outer fender sounds like you have no room at all or so little it was raised to be sure. I presume this is a stock A body 8 3/4 you have. Did you add LBP axles that...

Thanks for the responses. Any Duster or Barracuda owners out there with a similar combo? How much room to the leaf springs and outer fender do you have with your combinations?

My 69 Barracuda fastback is apart currently and was wondering for those of you will the same size wheel well in a fast back Barracuda and using an 8 3/4, will a 7" or 8" wide wheel with 4.25" backspacing be centered in the wheel well? What is your experience? Thanks

Does anyone know if unplug wheels like Cragar, Keystone, ... Will fit the small bolt pattern? Are these safe to use?

If I had to go with 3.75 backspacing on a 15x6 with stock disc brakes any idea of a good size tire to use that will turn and ride well on the street without rubbing?

Thanks for the response.

Which backspacing do you think will offer the best tire fit in my 69 Barracuda? Rims I am considering are 15" x 6" with either a 3.75", 4.0" or 4.25" backspacing. The car has the Kelsey Hayes disc brakes. I am still debating tire size which I know makes it harder to answer. Thanks

Does anyone know if Cragar SS wheels can be rechromed? Any idea of what it would cost for 1 wheel? Trying to see if new or used is the way to go.

On my 1970 Dart I added the mini tubes, moved the springs under the frame and had the differential narrowed to 51" drum to drum if memory serves me correctly. With this I can fit 15x10 rims with 4.5 inches of back spacing. I have run 15x28x11 slicks and N50 15 street tires which are around 27"...

I was hoping to run the 205/75R14 in the front of my 69 Barracuda ont he stock 5.5 steel wheels. The tires measure 26.1". Sounds like you are recommending otherwise. How close will these be to the fender?

I will be painting my 69 5.5" steel wheels the factory black. Was the shade semi-gloss or glossy? Thanks

I am considering upgrading to the large bolt pattern to mount mags on my 69 Barracuda. I also want to be able to switch from mags to steel wheels and hub caps for show events. Does anyone knows if there is a stock steel 14" wheel I can use that has the large bolt pattern and also has 4"...

Since most of you are running > 4" backspacing I guess I will pass on the 3.5" backspacing I had considered purchasing. Thanks for the feedback.

Anyone else with suggestions or information on these specs? Otherwise I will pass on the sheels and tires. Thanks

Thanks for the suggestions. These are not wheels I own but have the ability to buy. I was going to use the feedback here over a few days to help me make up my mind if I should go for it or not since I cannot take any measurements. Anyone with other comments or the ability to measure on...

I am looking for some advice from fellow members on whether 15" rims with 3.5" backspacing and 60 series tires will fit my 69 Barracuda. Unfortunately the car is striped down to the shell with no suspension so I cannot mock up the dimensions and measure the clearances. The specs for the wheel...

15" for me would be ideal!

Are there markings on stock steel rims that would help identify a 14x5.5" small bolt pattern rim when the tires are installed? I want to be sure that I purchase the correct rim versus the 14x4.5" model. Thanks

Does anyone know which aftermarket mags will work on a 69 Barracuda with the small bolt pattern and factory disc brake set up? American racing says their 14" Ansen & Outlaw 2 are for non-disc brake applications. For me a 14" or 15" wheel is fine. Thanks
