1952-59 Ford 1950 Ford wheels

Anyone know what the back spacing is on the factory 15" Ford car wheels? I found a couple to complete what I need. I know my factory 56 wheels are 3.75 but are the 50's different?

 

When I bought my 55 Sunliner there where two mud and snow tires on rims in the trunk. I just recently had them separated along with the 55 wheels/tires that were on the car. One of the m/s wheels had 1951 Ford written inside the rim. The wheel is identical to the four 55 wheels.

 

Thanks. I thought they were the same but the seller told me that the backspace was 3 3/8. Had me wondering.

 

I will measure for you and post it.

 

Pretty sure there are differences in the wheel offerings in those years , station wagon wheels are wider. Not sure on backspacing. You need to check width as well.

 

The wheel I have that has 1951 painted inside the wheel is 3.75 backspace. Wonder if a 50 could be different or if the seller is not measuring to the back of the wheel. Maybe they measured to the tire mounting area?

 

Watch what your buying because some 49-51 Fords had 16" wheels!
