Will these wheels fit?

I am going to put Coys C5 wheels on my '62 Starfire. I am wanting to go with 17x8 in the front with either 4 or 4.5" backspacing and 18x9.5 in the rear with either 5 or 5.5" backspacing. Does anyone know if these will fit?

Thanks

Have you tried to contact the manufacturer? They probably have information on what their wheels fit. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if they would fit.

Hmm... does Coys have a warranty stating you can return the wheels if they don't fit. Maybe your local wheel shop has wheels in stock in that size in a different style that they can test fit to be sure.

If I was guessing I would say yes to the 4.5 front and 5.5 in the back but you need to measure to be sure.

I am not sure about Coys warranty...but I did ask the guy at my local place if they had a similar wheel that I could try and they don't.

Thanks for the responses gentleman.
