14" 87/88 factory aluminum wheels on a 4 wheel drum brake 70S

Will they fit on the front? I read the 80's 14" SS'III's have different back spacing that hits the A arms on early cars? Assuming these have the same back spacing, running 205/75R14's for the front.

Every single RWD Cutlass from 1964-1988 uses wheels with the same zero offset and the same 5 x 4.75" bolt circle. The difference in backspacing is due to the difference in width - wider wheels have more backspacing for the same offset. In any case, 14x6, 14x7, and 15x7 factory wheels with zero offset will all fit every 1964-1988 Cutlass with factory brakes of any style.

Thanks Joe, was hoping so. With some elbow grease I think they will look awesome on the 70S, betting no one else has a set on a 70 S.
