I have a 74 Road Runner and am looking to purchase a set of Magnum 500 rims for it. 15 X 8 for Front and 15 X 10 for rear. Whjat Im looking for is to see if any one has 15 X 8 on the front and what the Back Spacing is. They come with 4.5 backspacing and I tried my 69 Runner Superior rims which have a 4.5 backspace and they end up binding on the caliper. I measured the distance from top of caliper to center of hub and it is 6 inches which says I need to be able to have at least 12 .5 inches clearnace in the back side of the rim. The brake caliber clearance for Backspacing is 1 inch. Does any one have a measurement of the rear inside measurement clearance of a 15 X 8 Magnum rim> Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
