I'm concerned about the +6mm offset and the specs don't mention the center bore diameter.

I'll be putting them on a 68 convertible with front OEM style single piston 11" disc brakes and standard drum rears. 1" dropped 620 springs, 4.5" mid-eye 1" drop leafs, and 1" Arning drop.

Any thoughts?

EDIT: I went to Dodgestang's chart first which is where I got the dimensions for this wheel but the chart makes no mention of offset nor center bore diameter to fit a particular hub.

I have magnums with the same dimensions (15x7 4.25bs +6mm os)
on the front of my 67.
The tires are 215/60 R15. No problems with the space.
My car is lowered, about 2 inches.
I don`t know the rest of the cragar rim.

Thanks! I actually went to the chart first but it makes no mention of the offset nor center bore factors so I just wanted to confirm first.

Your link says its 4.25 backspacing so using the dodgestang chart what else is needed?

You'd think so right? Except, take a look at this one:

It looks perfect but the center bore is 2.125". However, my OEM disc brake center bore is 2.85". Think how fun it would be to have them shipped to your house just to find out they won't even go onto the hub.

True, I was not taking into account anything related to brake rotar size. I did not have to worry about that when I ordered since I went with 17 inch rims and 11 inch disks
