Default will this rear tire combo fit?

i have a set of oldr cragar s/s rims with tire laying around from an older 81 cordoba. i really like these rims, they need to be cleaned up. they are 5x4.5" the rear is 15x9-9.5", the front is 15x 7-7.5 (its harder to measure with the rubber on) the back sapcing on the rear is ABOUT 4.5" and the front about 3.5".

the rear rubber is a 275/60/15 making it about a 29" tire i guess.
and the front rubber is a 205/75/15 making it about a 27" tire.

would these fit i am pretty sure that the ford uses the more common 4.5" bolt patternon their 5 lugs but not to sure.

thanks all

Default RE: what s the 5 lug bolt pattern 5x4.5"

I believe all 5 lug mustangs are 5x4.5, or 5x114.3, at least all the newer ones are.

the front rim/tire willl fit fine. but the rears i think the b/s isnt in enough. so the tire will stick out of the side too much. they are 4-4.5 b.s if they were 5.5 i think it would fit ok, but does anyone know if i could get the bs changed. i will try and post some pictures of the tires and rims tonight. i think it might be to tall also. way too tall, actually. does anyone have any experience with this size, bs or anything?
