Re: Backspacing Measurement

on the wheels on my 51 200:

overall rim width 6-1/2"
rim width - 5-1/2"
nominal wheel diameter - 15"
Pilot diameter - 3-1/2"
bolt circle dia (center of bolt hole to furtherest one)
3-1/2"
offset 4-1/2"

There are four "dimples" around the bolt holes to hold the hubcap on. I presently have four wheels off another car on the 51 that have metal clips around the rim to hold the hubcap. The stock dogfood dish hubcabs won't fit on these wheels, but the ones from a 50 senior series will. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need photos.
