Tires on now:

185/70R14
Front wheel

Rears ;15X8-4.5 backspacing 275/60-15
Fronts ; 15X6 or 7-4 or 3.5" backspacing 225/70-15.

If you lived closer I have that combination for sale.

I change my wheels every couple of years to give it a fresh look.

So I found a website http://www.wheelsforless.com/vintage_wheels.aspx but what is the bolt pattern 5/4.75 or 5/4.5 ?

If i get a 15X7 wheel with a -6mm Offset, would that be pushing my wheels out or in? I still dont fully understand offset, thanks.

Dave427 · Mar 24, 2010

Negative offset pushes your wheel out,
Your bolt pattern is 5/4.75

Im wanting the wheels to sit as flush with the fenders as i can, hopefully there will be no rubbing issues, thanks for your help.
