Stock 73 Fury rim offset and back spacing

[Camden Ray]

Hi all! I’m looking at a set of 15x7 cragar S/S rims and I was wanting to know the proper offset and back spacing for the stock 15x7 rims so I’ll know if they fit due to the fact they’d be second hand but I can’t find it anywhere online besides here hopefully

Chrysler didn't have any 15x7s that early. The '75-era Charger SE had a 15x6.5 Rally wheel option, though. Didn't measure them before I put them on my '70 Monaco.

I suspect that a 4.0" backspacing on a 7" wide wheel would work fine. The GM 15x7s usually had a 4.25" backspacing (as on the '77-'81 Z/28 steel wheels).

BE SURE to measure the backspacing correctly, at the rim, rather than at the flange of the rim. The Cragar website should have an illustration of that?

Enjoy!

I installed some aftermarket wheels on my '71 Newport a few years ago. They are 15"x7" and fit my car with no clearance issues. My car has front discs. I can't remember the offset, but I can definitely tell you that they are 3.75" backspacing, if that helps at all.

Yeah I did some more research and most of what I’m finding is 3.75 to 4.125 back spacing will work, Tanks for the info
