Bill:

Do this fit over the 1969 single piston caliper disc brakes?

[BillD]

They should work fine with a single piston 69 Caliper. <span style="font-weight: bold">If I am wrong someone please correct me.</span> They will not clear the big 68 and ealier 4 piston caliper without a spacer. The 15-7 wheels have a deep backspace so a spacer is not such a bad alternative if you have the big calipers. I also have a spare 15-7 that I could send out if anyone is interested in test fitting.

I really do not have a use for these and plan on listing them on Ebay. Ebay and Paypal are going to take $150.00 away from me if they sell so new asking price is $925.00. If you can use them and $925.00 is too much make an offer. I also have 4 American 200S 15X7 for $500.00 and a pair of American 15 x 7 slot wheels for $250.00? I am trying to get rid of stuff I should have never bought in the first place so I can buy more stuff I don't need.

Bill do you have pics of the 200S Americans?

Sorry for the delayed reply. I have been away. These are a matching set but it looks like someone tried cleaning two which lightened the color on the spokes. No center caps. Have correct sand texture on the spokes.

Now that made me laugh.

Man, Bill, I looked for 6 months for some 200S wheels. That is a great deal at $500. I would be all over it, but I just spent too much money on some centerlines, and already have two other sets of wheels tires for my car. Pretty hard to justify a fourth set.

Bill, what a coincidence... I'm looking for stuff that I don't need.

I sent you a pm on the American Racing T70 Wheels. Any idea how they would fit on a 1969 Chevelle? Can you send me the back-space measurements?

Thanks

[BillD]

Helmut, I will get you the backspace measurements when I get home from work. We may need some help figuring out if the 8.5 wheels will work on the back of a 69 Chevelle

[BillD]

Backspace on the T70's are as follows 8.5's = 3 7/8 Backspace. 7's = 4 1/2 backspace. I have no idea if the 8.5's will work on the back of the Chevelle. The 7's should be OK on the front. I hope this helps.
