89 Formula interested in installing AR Ventura wheels...

I have a 89 Formula, 305tpi that i am interested in the American Racing Ventura (Series AR136). Curious if anyone has tried these before and if my calculations are correct they will fit. Thanks Mueller

i will kepp my opinions of that wheel to myself.

16x8 with 4.5" of bs and a 4.75 (120.65) bolt circle will bolt right on, front and back. Its the same spec as the factory 16x8 "front" wheels

Reminds me of something i would see on a pick up truck or off road vehicle, seems like an outdated design

I suppose so but the dished design always was a trait I personally cared for and i wish to stay with my 245/50/16 tires. Had a 91 in the past that had similar wheels just with more spokes that looked great.
