anyone know the offset for 15 X 6 crabs that would have come off an '87 Daytona Shelby Z?
thanks,
Badger.....
if they are originally from a daytona they would be 6.5 inches wide and i believe the backspacing for all the oem 15s was 40mm.

Shadows came with the 15x6's.. Daytona's with 15x6.5's
as for the offsets, I remember someone a while back saying that there was a 38mm and 40mm difference between the 6 wide vs 6.5?

I measured the back spacing on my 6.5 crab wheels a couple months ago. They're 40mm.
