wheels for 68
Hi,
I havent posted here for a long time. I got my 68 running pretty well and started restoring a 72 vette. Now I am back to spend a little more money on the mustang. I am looking at these wheels.

I just wanted to make sure that these fit. I checked the dodgestang chart and a 15x7 with 4.5 BS should fit but I have found this wheel with three different offsets and I wanted to make sure I get the right one. This one pictured is a +13mm offset. I have seen the 15x7 with a 4.5 backspace with more than one offset so I just have to be sure.
Thanks

Those wheels look alright. My friend had some similar but were the smooth non riveted wagon wheels in chrome. I had the ones with the round holes and rivets called nuggets back in high school. They were chrome nugget wheels with the black insert and looked pretty sweet. I don't think they make them anymore though. I like them on my car because it has black interior and is dark blue. With some of the other color combinations, they may not looks so great. I like these other two choices better though.

OP - I think you want the 3305712, which has 3.75" backspacing.
I suspect that the 'P' in 3305712P refers to it being a positive offset version of the same design and intended for cars that came OE with up to around +20mm offset wheels.

I bought the vintage 48's from Summit. I like the way they look on my car but they're cheaply made. I had to return two [out of a total of four] back because they were warped. The backs of the rims showed gross welding and extra blocks of metal to keep the rims together. They were also a bitch to balance.
I will be looking for a better quality wheel soon.
