Lee:
Stock "Z" wheels will fit the B well. The offset is correct and
the bolt pattern is the same 4 X 4 1/2. I have used them effectively on
a couple of cars. Be careful of American made "mag" wheels. They
typically have a positive offset, (stick out more) and you may have rear
tyre clearance problems on early (-75) cars.
