Re: Unexpected disk brake - wheel problem

Stock 16 inch 4-1/2 inch wide wheels on a 53 had/have 0 offset. 15- 5.5 have 0 offset. That should give about a 2-1/4 inch backspace.

I've got what I think is a 15 inch AD wheel out here and if I can find it in the snow tomorrow I'll measure the backspacing.

This from page 155 of the GM Heritage 53 truck pfd https://www.gm.com/content/dam/compa...olet-Truck.pdf
