73 Charger wheel Bolt Pattern

[Moparbob]

Hi,

Anyone know the bolt pattern (size) for a 73 charger?  Looking at these wheels http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-61015/Application/?prefilter=1

4.5

Dern,

Apparently the Cragar ss 10" wont fit

Why not?  It lists 5x4.5   5x4.75   5x5
with 4.25 backspace.  Is the backspacing the issue?

So 5x4 1/2 would fit?

[mikepmcs]

Yes.  As far as the 10" goes, that might be a question to have answered instead.  I don't know off hand if 4.25 backspacing is what will work without some rubbing issues. It might or might not, I don't know.  I do know that I have 15x8.5's on mine with 295/50's. It's tight but they clear.(2nd gen though)

[mikepmcs]

Looks like the backspacing might be an issue here.  I was cruising some threads and specifically looking for 3rd gen stuff and it appears 5-5.5 backspacing is what you are looking for. 
We'll see what others have to say.

Thanks Mike,

I really want Cragar SS wheels, Anybody else have any comments? Also should I go with 8"s or 10"s?
