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.

This site may be of help to you:

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.
