I want to get the Cragar 341's (15x7 front, 15x8 rear), but I have no idea what backspacing or even bolt circle size I need.

the wheels can be found here:

if it matters, right now i have 15" rally wheels on the car, with 235's in front and 265 in rear. I do not want the wheels to stick out of the fenders in the rear.

please just let me know which one of those wheels i will need (front/rear). Either a part number, or actual size would be appreciated. Thanks!

come on guys, help me out. im waiting on some answers from someone here before i order them, and im getting anxious to get them on the car. i want to order them this week.

these look like the weld pro stars.I think you ment 7's for the front and 8's for the rear? I think you would want 4" for the rear and 3.5" on the front? make a cardboard cut out and test fit at all angles to be sure..... anyone else?

Okay, well since i made this thread, i think ive changed my mind and decided to get the Weld Pro Stars instead (same sizes).

I dont know if this makes a difference, but let me know what backspacing i need please.

The standard 3.75"or 4" b.s. on the 15X7's will be fine. On the rears, we just put some 15X8" wheels with 275/60-15's on a friends 69. We had to custom order a 5" backspacing to get them inside the fenders without rubbing. A 4.75" might work also. The 4" b.s. on the 8" wheel I think will give you rubbing problems on the fender lips. He actually trimmed his slightly just in case, and was using one step bigger tires than you. It was close, but it did fit.

so would the 15x8's with 4.5" backspacing, with stock heighth and 265 tires fit in the rear without sticking out on my 68?

Summit only lists 4.5" and 5.5" backspacing on the 15x8's.

Just to be sure, use a straight edge and a ruler. wheel well should be 11" wide in rear, 6"to the outter lip and 5" to the inner housing on a 67/68... 69's are a different animal. do a search on this subject.
