1970 Checker Taxicab Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1970 Checker Taxicab accepts a 5x120.65 bolt pattern with a 70.3 mm center bore. The factory wheel is 15x6 at plus-25 offset. You can fit either 15x6 or 15x6.5 widths, both in the same offset, delivering a period-correct or slightly wider stance without fitment complications.
Because only the 5x120.65 bolt pattern fits, verify any wheel's hole pattern before purchase. Hub-centric rings are essential if your chosen wheel's center bore exceeds 70.3 mm, ensuring proper centering and balance. Sticking with recommended widths and offsets prevents rubbing against fenders or suspension components on this classic frame.
Every wheel we list bolts straight onto your Taxicab and ships free across the lower 48 states. American Racing, Ridler, Vision, and WELD Performance are all in stock and ready to ship, offering you proven options for your classic cab.
