Your local Dodge dealer probably has the 72-73 truck catalog (parts men never throw catalogs (or anything) away)
group 22-01-0
you will see all the wheel options listed
the offset, backside, & hub dia are not
listed - so you need a sample to measure
remember the width is measured from bead seat to bead seat (internal) and the backside is measured from the mounting plane to the plane of the outside lip - offset is the difference from the backside setting to the front setting ie a 6in wheel has overall width of 7in (outer plane to outer plane) zero offset would there for measure at 3.5 in 3.5 out
1 inch pos offset would be 3.0 in & 4.0 out
the light duty 100 - 200 series (W & D) 1972 - 1973 with 5 stud 15 & 16 inch wheels had a 4.5 dia inch bolt circle
