Torq Thrust

[TheEvII]

Anyone running 15x7 or 16x7 Torq-Thrust wheels on a 68/69? What is the backspace of the wheels you have? How big are the tires?

I think my wheel chart might help answer this questions for you.

Just click on the correct year chart. 68-70 have the same size wheel wells as an FYI so anything that fits on a 68 will also work on a 69

That's a big help. Thanks.

I believe all American Racing Torque Thrust have the same backspacing - 3.75 inches, no matter the size. Other brands may vary but why not stick with the original.

Actually, American Racing tells you that the 67-69 Mustangs should have their TT with a 4.25 backspacing. Only problem is that they don't have them in stock and it takes 6 weeks to order them. They only stock the 3.75's. That's where the confusion came in. American Racing (the original as you call them) say that the 3.75's don't work.
