Best guess and/or opinion time again.  There is a set of 15 x 6.5 Hyundai 
rims on ebay that look kind of nice.  They are a spoke type pattern, and have 
a 4x4.5" bolt pattern.  I emailed the seller a question about the offset, 
which he wasn't familiar with, but he did measure the distance from the back 
of the mounting flange to the inner edge of the wheel and it came in at 5.5". 
 Does this sound like a combination that would fit my 69 Roadster with say a 
set of 195/60/15's on them?  Here is the link to the ebay page:

I am having a hell of time deciphering all of this offset meausrement info, 
it's VERY confusing.  I just bought a set of 14x7 turbine wheels for cheap, 
but they haven't arrived yet and I'm not overly optimistic they're going to 
fit.  Plus, my mechanic has tried to convince me to go with a 15" wheel, 
which since I want to go with a lower profile tire, seems to make sense to 
me.  Whaddya all think?  Thanks a bunch.

69 2000
69 510 Wagon (project getting bigger all the time as I just stripped the 
interior.  Being ready for Blue Lake show looking doubtful)
