1969 Dodge Dart backspacing

CluelessMopar said
Rear has moser axles with stock BBP drums & front was all stock RockAuto parts for 76 Dart that I purchased. I had a 17x8 wheel with 5 backspacing on the front and that rubbed up against the fender when turning pretty good. It's been hard to find wheels that are 7 inches with backspace greater than 4 inches

I had to go custom. I had no luck finding anything off the shelf that would fit without spacers.

What tires size was on your 17x8? I have 215/45/17 on the front and need to go a bit taller, like a 225/50/17.

With a 15x7, 4.5 BS is about perfect with a 225-235 wide tire.
