Starting the restore on my 68 Charger, On the Charger now are fake Craiger rims, I really don't like them. I like the new magnum Rally style rims, they are American Racing 2 piece aluminum rims and can get them bigger than the 14" rims stock.

Summit racing sells them as well in 18", or you can just get the steel Mag 500 in 15" (which are considerable less expensive)

Magnum 500 / Road Wheels are one of Mopar's best looking wheels. I prefer them over Rallye Wheels, especially on light colored cars (white, Lemon Twist, Limelight, etc.).

So bottom line: Thumbs up from me...

I bought these for my Charger, 15 X 10 and 15 X 8, light weight.
 
The magnum 500 is the look I want, I also wanted bigger then 14" rims, What is the difference between Ralle rim and Magnum 500 rims, I thought they wee the same.

The rims currently on my 68 Charger are a Craiger knock off.
 
Mine are 15x8 with a4.5" backspace on the rear with 275/60 tires and I put 15x6 on the front with 225/70 .the ralley wheels were on 1970 and up.not on 68 or 69.
 
I'm a Cragar man myself for the old school look. What's a fake Cragar look like. I'm having a set made for me special right from Cragar.
