Will these slot mags work? (Backspace)

Some of you may know that I have been searching for a pair of Appliance slot mags. I've got 15x8.5 on the back.
I have been talking to a guy that has two 15x8.5's. He said the backspace is 3.5'?

Are these going to work on the front of a 68? I want to go with 245-60's.

Probably not.  That's almost 2" of negative offset.  I may be wrong but 0 offset is about right for the front wheels.

Zero offset. This means half the width of the wheel then?

For the 8.5" wheel, zero offset would be 9.5 / 2 = 4.75 backspacing.  I made this for rear wheel fitment, but you can use it to see what changing the offset does for bs on any width wheel -->  http://vexer.com/68rt/wheelguide.html

Good luck, not many wheels look better than slotted mags.   :2thumbs:
