    Dave, rim size has nothing to do with back spacing. Back spacing depends on rim WIDTH. Back spacing requirements are the same for a 13" rim and a 20" rim with the same width. For a 70-72 Skylark/GS,

    7" wide, BS 4 3/8"
    8" wide, BS 4 1/2- 5"
    10" wide, BS 5 1/2- 5 5/8"

    The wider you go, the chance increases that minor side to side differences will make a difference.
