and 1963 chevy corvette

I believe the bolt pattern for the 1969 mach1 is 5x4.5 inches...

can someone confirm this.


also what is the bolt pattern for the chevy corvette from 63-66 ...my buddy is offering his Torque Thrust D 15x7 for just about free,

I don't believe the bolt pattern is the same, and I'm pretty sure the offset spacing wouldn't work...

Thanks

5 on 4-3/4 (120.6 mm)

Chevy van
Chevrolet - all (exc. as noted elsewhere) '49-'89
Corvette all
Corvair '65-'69 5-bolt
GM compact and midsize

so no it wont fit

You can always get wheel adapters. Could compensate for backspacing differences and change the bolt pattern all in 1 go..

depending on how old those torq thrust's are they might be uni-lug which will fit bot for and gm bolt patterns. might want to check it out before you completely discard the idea

Thanks the rims are pretty new

would the new ones be more likely to be uni-bolt or older version be more likely?


How could I tell if they are uni-bolt or not?

Thanks for the second burst of hope

Well, the new ones are NOT unilug, in fact i dont think they ever were, but im not 100% on the old school ones. cragar ss's are unilug, but i dont think torque thrusts are. u can tell because the bolt holes would be enlarged to fit multiple sizes of mounting. i seriously doubt this is gonna work out for u. i wouldnt personally use wheel adapters to make these work, those will cost a pretty penny themselves and they are not as safe as just bolting the wheel on.
