14 x 6 SS3 ??
I have 4 wheels marked XA 03 13 85 991 14X 6 JJ MW5 T

What did they come on and what is the back space?

Thanks

Sounds like the 80s era G-Body wheels.
I suspect 03 13 85 is the manufacture date.

Does anyone know if there is any difference to those made in 70"s? Back space/ trim ring fit?

Well in the early 70s the SSII/SSIII wheels were 14x7. The late 60s had 14x6 SSII wheels.

Thanks...read it and mentions 80's back space changed but does not tell you any back space measurements for any wheel, early or late.
