1970 Checker Marathon Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1970 Checker Marathon bolts on with a five by one-hundred-twenty-point-sixty-five millimeter pattern. The factory wheel measures fifteen by six inches at twenty-five millimeter offset. You can also fit fifteen by six-point-five inch wheels on this platform. Both sizes work equally well since the Marathon runs the same setup front and rear.
Pay close attention to the hub-centric requirement: your center bore sits at seventy-point-three millimeters. Wheels with larger bores need hub-centric rings to seat properly on your hub. Only the five by one-hundred-twenty-point-sixty-five bolt pattern will fit—no other pattern works. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk contact with the fenders and suspension components, so stick within the compatible range to avoid fitment issues.
All wheels listed here arrive verified to bolt on straight, with free shipping across the lower forty-eight states. American Racing, WELD Performance, and Forgestar are all in stock and ready to ship for your Marathon.
