15x4.5 for the front 15x8 rears.
I ordered the rears with 5 3/8" backspacing to fit a 275/60/15 radial Going to run a 205/70/15 on the front. Got the rears mounted today, front's later this week. ![]()

Cool wheels! Why is one a uni-lug and the other a standard pattern?

Just because the rears were a custom order offset and they asked me what bolt pattern. The fronts were off the shelf unilugs

Those rears look great. Are the straight lugs acorn or shouldered lugs?

Rears are acorn. Here's a pic of the fronts but I went too tall on my front tires and they're catching slightly on the bottom fender bolt when I turn. Grrr! I'll add some better pics on a nice day. Any suggestions on a different size for the fronts? These are 205/70/15s and as I mentioned seem to be too tall.

Use different bolts, and keep the tires - they look good!

We never had to worry about this fender bolt rubbing in my part of the country back in the 70's..they were usually rotted off from salt. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
