Tires and wheel question.

Robb, due to the wheel stud measurements (5x4) 5 lugs by 4" there are only 2 choices. The wheels you have found (American Racing OutlawII) or Cragar SS. The Cragar's come in a reverse offset as well. (deep dish). If by chance you have a different bolt pattern then you have many more options. My wife purchased a rear end form an earlier model "a" body that had adapters bolted to the drums that changed the bolt pattern from 5 on 4" to 5 on 4& 1/2. A bodies used the 4" pattern till 1968 when they went to 4 & 1/2. Both the American Racing and the Cragar wheels only come in 14" with the 5 on 4" pattern. I am going to use the adapters on the rear of my 67 Barracuda to get some 15" rear tires and wheels. (Outlaw II)


I thought the 5 x 4 bc was used until 1973 on the A bodies?

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm having much difficulty nailing down the proper wheels I could use in a drum to disc conversion on my 69 GTS and I'm slowly beginning to realize that I may have to switch to 5 x 4.5 and go with 15's all the way around.

If my '69 already has the 5 x 4.5" I'd be pleasantly surpirised.
