I know this is a rather late reply, but I'm still playing catch up from being off for the holidays, I've got 280 messages waiting to read.



I had to measure my set of stock Campis when I put them unto my 1969 Mustang.  The following are the measurements I made (all to the nearest 1/8").



   The 7" wheels have 3 5/8" backspacing (1/8" positive offset).



   The 8" wheels have 4 5/8" backspacing (5/8" positive offset).



   I don't know for certain about the 10" Campi's, I've never had any, but I 

   would guess that they would have the same backspacing as the 8" wheels 

   (4 5/8" backspacing or 3/8" negative offset).



   As previously stated in other posts, the Pantera uses a standard 

   Ford bolt pattern of 5 on 4.5".

I'm still toying with possible wheel package. Does anyone have handy the

back spacing for 10",8" and 7" wheels and the bolt pattern.
