17 x 7 500 Magnum Wheel 5 x 4.5 Bolt Circle

The 17 x 7 500 Magnum Wheel with a 5 x 4.5 bolt circle from American Racing Wheels is engineered for drivers seeking classic muscle car aesthetics combined with modern fitment reliability. This wheel is purpose-built for vehicles using the 5 x 4.5 bolt pattern—a standard found on mid-to-late model American performance cars, classic restomods, and vintage truck applications. Whether you're restoring a Chevrolet, Pontiac, or Oldsmobile, or upgrading a modern vehicle with period-correct styling, this wheel delivers the iconic 500 Magnum profile that dominated American racing culture.

At 17 inches in diameter and 7 inches in width, the 500 Magnum geometry offers a balanced footprint suitable for both street and strip applications without requiring extensive suspension geometry changes. The wheel's 26.34-pound weight per unit keeps unsprung mass reasonable—critical for maintaining ride quality and rotational inertia on daily drivers. American Racing's manufacturing maintains tight tolerances on the 5 x 4.5 bolt circle, ensuring hub-centric fitment that eliminates vibration and guarantees even brake rotor wear. The classic Magnum design features a deep, concave face that visually widens the stance while the barrel construction provides structural rigidity under lateral cornering loads.

This wheel configuration suits restoration enthusiasts, weekend track warriors, and anyone running a 5 x 4.5 platform seeking OEM-quality construction with vintage appeal. The 7-inch width accommodates most factory and slightly wider tire packages without rubbing or modification, making it an excellent choice for restomod builds targeting 225–245 series rubber. Installation requires only standard 1/2-inch lug nuts and a torque wrench set to manufacturer specifications for your vehicle; no adapters or spacers needed. American Racing's reputation for durability ensures these wheels will handle daily commuting, spirited road courses, and long-term collector car storage without compromising structural integrity.
