Title: Torque Thrust d wheels
Post by: chero69gt on 2010-02-19 17:18
I have a chance to pick up a set of Torque Thrust D wheels, they are only about a year old, and was wondering if anyone here has an opinion of whether they will fit under the rear wheel wells of my 57 Custom. They are 15x7 with 4 inch back space and have 235/70r15 tires on them.
They look like they will fit but might be close.
 
                     Thanks,   Roger

Roger,

They will fit I had a set on my Rachero I just sold.  See Pictures on the site for close ups.

Roger:
To be on the safe side ask the seller if he will let you test fit the wheels and tires on the rear.
I like the AR Torque Thrusts too, but several of the more experienced 57 Ford owners told me any 15 inch wheel with less than a 4.5 inch backspace on the rear is iffy.  Many of the posts suggest a 225-270-15 or a 235-70-15.
