hi, i have a 67 dart gt, the bolt pattern is the same as my 74 valiant, at an upcoming local auction there are "et mags" off a 79 duster, 1st, will these fit my car? is there an easy way to tell on auction day? 2nd, are they a good product?
3rd, and finally, about how much are they worth?
thanks!

The bolt pattern on your Dart is 5X4", the '79 is 5X4.5". If the mags are uni-lug (the holes where the studs fit through will be oval shaped to accept an oval shaped spacer with a hole for the stud to pass through), then they should fit.

Watch out for the unilug wheels, the sets I've seen most do not fit the small bolt mopar.,if nothing else test fit the wheel or measure the wheel lug distance. Good Luck!!!!!!!!

Definitely stay away from unilug wheels - bad news! The 67 had 4" factory (unless it's been swapped) while most 74's I've seen were 4.5". Measure both carefully to see what's what. Will the auction people let you test fit one on your car before purchase?

If your '74 shares the same bolt patterns as your '67 then they both have the 5 lugs on 4" bolt circle or "small bolt pattern", SBP was available almost all the way to the end on mopar A-bodies (at least up to the early 1976 model year). This topic gets knocked around every month or so, LBP "Large Bolt Pattern" or 5 lugs on 4.5" bolt pattern was found on the larger mopar cars, and on A-bodies could be found on 1973-1976 cars with either the 8 1/4" rear equipped cars and/or the single caliper disk brake option....


FYI,
