Rear 18 x 10 with 5 inch backspacing and 3/8 inch hubcentric spacer.
I bought the covers mounted on foam.. installing the foam with covers in the shells was easy as was installing the seats in the car..

Lovely... I think. Can you show more of the seats. Might be an option for my 1974 convertible but I will have to research seat backs, seat tracks, etc. But I am tempted.

The tracks that came with the seats should bolt to your front seat mount. You may have to drill a hole and use a locking nut and a washer for the rear mount..
