John,

Good advice! We are in the process of doing just that...

We're getting wheels with a back-spacing that will put the wheel where it needs to be. Stockton Wheel is good at that sort of thing;( my '72 Valiant has small bolt pattern, 7"-wide, 15" steel wheels, and those are not an everyday item.)
