Backspacing for 83 BJ42?

[Diescipel]

OK I know this is a banal question and I should know, but there's set of nice chrome 84 FJ60 wheels I'm looking at and I'm wondering if they will fit my 83 BJ42. I looked at my spare but all I could see was "T 15X6 JJ DOT 2 83"--no backspacing right?

Thanks,
B

JJ Offset, and 3.5" Back Spacing is the magic combo for your cruiser in 15".

Thanks Greg--so does this mean that 84 FJ60 wheels will fit my 83 BJ42??

IIRC Yes. The chrome stock 60 wheel and a late model 40/42 are the same except for paint vs. chrome.

Yup'r...wesintl has it.

Got them .
Thanks again for the help. Not sure how I'll use them--maybe throw my 30x9.5 MudTerrains on them while I get the other set of wheels powdercoated white and then fitted with 33x9.5 AllTerrains.

nice, you even get the caps which look to be in good condition.
