Ideas for white steel wheels...

[dax]

I'm looking for some white, steel wheels for my 76 Bronco. I haven't seen a lot of options. I need a 15x8 and the main concern I have is that they have a backspacing that will work. Any leads or ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. I've checked them out. I wonder about that 3.75 backspacing though. They have another set at Summit with a 2.5" backspacing, but that doesn't seem right.

How far do you want your tires out. 3.5 is more the norm.

I just want the wheels to fit with the front brakes on the 76 Bronco.

This is what I'd like.

I have 2 76 and 2 77 Broncos.
Custom wheels are tough.
3.75 backspace wheels won't fit.

I tried off some 8 inch wide spokes and they looked ridiculous because they stuck out so far. Don't know the back spacing but can measure them if you want.

I guess I'll have to use spacers.....

LOTS of choices in black steel rims. Very few in white......

Even the '80's and '90's factory spoke style 7 and 8 inch wheels don't fit.

But if I use a 1/4 or 1/2 inch spacer they will.....right?

If I use spacers on the front, don't I need to use spacers in the rear to get them to match up?

Correction, they're 3.75 in BS, just measured

And is it a '74? If so it's different than a 76-77

Yeah, a '74 with the GM front disk brake conversion.

Here's my 76 with the factory spokes and 3/8 spacers in the front/ With 1/4 the weights still hit.

Now the backs look too tucked in.

That's what I'm afraid of...

Unless you change to longer studs, you'll need the bolt-on spacers!%)%) I'm fighting it right now!!!%)%)
