Good morning all,

My question is as follows...


For my 67' convertible 289 2v wheel hubs have 5 bolt, will the following work for the rear...

Wheel: American Racing Torq Thrust II, 17 x 8 with a 4.75 bolt pattern & 4 1/2" back spacing? (7/16 lug nuts).

Tires: 235 55 17.

I have seen that the 17x8 will fit but the back spacing has me concern. My car has 5 bolt. The site calls 4.75. Is this right?

Please advise, regards.

 

should be 5x4.5 for the lug pattern

here's a go0d guide to check out for wheel fitment for a 67-68

Mustangs unlimited and others sell 1" spacer kits that supposedly allow you to install those newer model wheels on the older Mustangs.

 

I put a set of 17x8 2003 cobra wheels on my '66 mustang. I needed the spacer up front, but not in the rear. Cant remember how thick it was, but I didnt need a full inch up front.

 

Ford is 5x4.5 and GM is 5x4.75 bolt pattern

 

The correct back spacing for a 17X8 on a classic Mustang is 4.75" you won't need spacers Link to Artical

 

Also your car has 1/2 studs not 7/16. The wheels you are looking at are make for a chevy
