Can someone explain the difference in sizes on a rim? What do the measurements mean and how can I tell what size will work with my 64 Chevelle that currently has 14" rims? Summit Racing seems to have very decent pricing.
Here are four different size descriptions from www.summitracing.com regarding Cragar SS Rims: (crr-61616) 14 in. x 6 in., 5 x 4 1/2 in., 5 x 4 3/4 in., and 5 x 5 in. triple bolt circle, 2 in. reversed backspacing, chrome plated finish, S/S Super Sport wheel Specifications: * Diameter: 14 in. * Width: 6 in. * Bolt circle: 5 x 4 1/2 in., 5 x 4 3/4 in., 5 x 5 in. * Backspacing: 2 in. reversed * Lug nut type: .800 in. mag shank * Includes center cap * Lug nuts sold separately (crr-08060) 14 in. x 6 in., 5 x 4 in. bolt circle, 3 1/2 in. back spacing, steel/aluminum construction, chrome plated, S/S series wheel Specifications: * Diameter: 14 in. * Width: 6 in. * Bolt circle: 5 x 4 in. * Backspacing: 3 1/2 in. * Requires .767 in. shank mag-style lug nuts (crr-08762) 14 in. x 7 in., 5 x 4 in. bolt circle, 2 3/4 in. reversed backspacing, chrome plated finish, S/S Super Sport wheel Specifications: * Diameter: 14 in. * Width: 7 in. * Bolt circle: 5 x 4 in. * Backspacing: 2 3/4 in., reversed (crr-61714) 14 in. x 7 in., 5 x 4.5 in., 5 x 4.75 in., and 5 x 5 in. triple-drilled bolt circle, 4 1/8 in. backspacing, steel/aluminum construction, chrome plated, S/S series wheel Specifications: * Diameter: 14 in. * Width: 7 in. * Bolt circle: 5 x 4.5 in., 5 x 4.75 in., 5 x 5 in. * Backspacing: 4 1/8 in. * Requires .800 in. shank mag-style lug nuts Can anyone help me with the differences on these rims? What should I look for in width, bolt circle, backspacing (or reversed backspacing), and what type of lug nuts should be ordered since they have left hand and right hand threads, and sizes of 5/16 and 1/2.
