I have a 1973 satilite sebring plus. All stock suspension front and rear.I have 2 BF Goodrich TA radial tires for the front 245-60-15. And 275-60-15 for the rear. And want to buy crager ss wheels. With the rear being a little deeper dish than the front wheels. And I have no idea of what size back spacing to buy. Hoping someone could help me out on here.

Mine are on a 68 R/T, same size combo. 15X7 3.5 back spacing.

Backspacing choice on that wheel is very limited so you don't have much choice. This will fit assuming you have a stock width axle in the car: Front 15x7 4.125 backspacing. Rear 15x8 4.25 backspace. This will give the rear a deeper dish than front by about an inch.
 
Thanks a lot #41 for the help. Yes, the rear diff stock.
 
You need to do some measuring With the rim on the car now.Measure the width of the wheelhouse from the wheel lip that would touch the tire if it were to big.
Measure the width of your tire at the widest part of the sidewall.What is the back space on the currant rims.
This info will help determine how big a tire you fit and the needed backspace.:thumbsup:
