15x7 with 4.5bs all around..will this work?
Hello,
im rolling on 14's on my 83 T/A. Superspokes. I like the look but need new tires. Not going to buy little 14's anymore.
260-3305734P
Super Spoke Wheel
Size: 15''x 7''
Bolt Circle: 5 x 4-3/4''
Rear Spacing: 4-1/2''
Offset: +12mm
I found pics on here searching of guys running 3.75 bs but thought they stick out to far for my likeing.
Will 4.5bs hit anything on the inside like the outer balljoints? I was planning on running 235/60s all 4.

IMO 235/60r15 on a 7in.wide wheel are nice for the front but a 235/60r15 on a 7in. wide wheel is small for the rear.
If you're going to buy new 15in. wheels and tires I suggest the 235/60r15s on the 7in. wide wheel front and 255/60r15in. tires on an 8in. wide wheel for the rear. That way you will have a staging look and a "slight" rake.If that's what you're looking for.
4.5in. BS seems to be popular within that range.
This is a 235/60r15 front with 7in. wheels and 255/60r15s on 8in. wheels in the rear. Bough with 3.75 BS (IMO this combo fits me perfectly), so I would think a 4.5 BS with this setup would tuck in nicely with no problems. It’s best to get a second opinion on BS.

Heres what I found = http://www.jegs.com/i/Cragar/260/3305834P/10002/-1
Its 4 3/4 BS . That's as close as they come in that wheel. Nothing wrong with that because there 8in. wheels with a wider tire than the front.
