I'll try to take a look at my cars in the next day or two. I have a '37 115c and a '40 110.

My '40 110 has 6x16 wheels, with 5 on 4.5's; not sure what the backspacing is though. Ford passenger car wheels bolted right up. I'm pretty sure the 120's were different.

Edit: I checked a spare wheel tonight from my '40 110. 16", seems to have 5 on 4.25" spacing. Backspacing is 4 1/4:. I did however, bolt up a 60's Ford 4 on 4.5" wheel to the car last summer. Hmmm.

I also checked a couple of wheels from a '47 Clipper that were given to me when I bought an engine: 15", 5 on 4.75" with 3.75" backspacing.
