The back spacing on the sunburst wheels was to original Shelby specs. Bob Putnam measured them and said to take an additional .250" off but I have access to a buddy's 20" lathe so I only took .1875 to allow as much room as possible for clearance of exhaust pipe. This was enough to catch a full nut which is what I was after. I have a spare wheel so if you need that dimention I would be happy to provide it.
