I have a 70 Barracuda that has 15 in rally wheels. I'm looking for a plain steel wheel for a spare. I need a 15 x 7in. I found a wheel at Summit racing with the correct lug pattern and back spacing. When I check the fitment, I get the message, it won't fit your vehicle. It will fit a most models of Fury Is that because the Barracuda came with 14 in wheels? My understanding, the Hemi and AAR came with 15 in wheels. I tried local tire and wheel shops, Facebook Market Place and Craig's list. I'll double check Ebay. Thanks

Money pit, I wouldn't bet my life on it, but I'm pretty sure it will fit no problem. Especially if it's 5x4.5 bolt pattern and ~3.5 back spacing (near zero offset).

I recall the back spacing is 4.25 in. That's the same as the wheels I have on the car. Thanks

There's some good info in the link if you (or anyone) might be considering an aluminum "donut" to save weight and trunk space. Seems the go to is a Mercury wheel that needs slight enlarging of the center bore.
