Rims for Drag Radials.
Would those rims fit on a 68' Vette?
Eagle Alloy brand aluminum rims 15" x 8". They are 5 lug wheels with 2 different lug patterns. (4 1/4" x 5 and 4 1/2" x 5) The back-spacing is 3 inches.
Would those fit on a 68? Seems to me like I would need more backspacing - right?
:cheers:

I'm here and I'm and old C2 and C3 racer before I ever got my C4.
A C3 still takes a 4 3/4 bolt circle.
4 1/4 and 4 1/2 will fit some Fords and Chrysler products.
