There is your problem. Someone changed out the rear, at one time to the small bolt pattern drum brake unit, or did a disc brake conversion. What you will need to do, to get the same bolt pattern, front and back, is to change the rear, to a 7 1/4 from a disc brake "A" body, or convert to a 8 1/4 rear.

The large bolt pattern is a 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. The small is 4 inch bolt pattern. A 8 1/4 rear from an "A" body will bolt in, be will need a shorter driveshaft. Take a look here.

metric bolt pattern???
5 x 100 mm. Almost, but not quite, the same as 5 x 4". The offset is usually wrong, too.

Just to restate: I would not use the 100 mm wheels, except as a spare.
