Hi guys question? Whst size tires/ rims for my 73 Plymouth satellite sebring with a regular 318 motor in it?
Yes I would like to know the original factory size for my particular model rims and tires thanks in advance sebringMaybe you are asking what a factory size was for your model?
You will get a more accurate and faster response if you are clearer with what you want to know.
Thanks for the advice multimopes I'll certainly be following the suggestions you have for me.As for more pics on my car check out the ones l posted before under "pics of my car" posted by myself sebring hopefully you find them as they're all l have for now ps thanks for the welcomeThat is a loaded question sir. At the bare minimum and as a starting point, always use at least 15" diameter rims. It helps clear any later brake upgrades and tire sizes are way better than 14" tires. If I were you I would check the tires and rims section and also the 71 to 74 car sections. You can also do a search in either area. Are you wanting to use factory wheels or aftermarket?
Motor size does not matter, I had L-60's on my slant six Dart years back. See my photo garage for pics. Not knowing the look you are going for leaves this question wide open. Do you prefer stock wheels/tires in the same size so they can be rotated regularly or do you like big meat in the rear as I always have? I am running N-50 15" on 8 1/2" rims with no clearance issues but I have a narrower rear on my 73 Satty RR clone. Again, see my photo garages. I do know that a 29" x 12.50 tire on an 8.5" rim will darn near clear a 73/74 rear wheel well but (only with the exact offset)! In any case, I wish you good luck with your quest and I hope that I have helped in some way! By the way, I see that you only joined earlier this year so I will add; Welcome aboard from NJ. Your car looks Nice! Please post more pictures.
No build sheet sorry thanks for the reply thoughVery likely an F78 x 14 on 14 x 5.5" wheels. There were more options. Got a build sheet?
I totally agree with you on that. But being new to mopars l thought it would be nice to know the original size of both rims and tires (stock) then hopefully find out what direction lm gonna go ( how big the rims and tires my car can actually take comfortably) lm just glad to get some feedback from you experienced mopar guys and as l said earlier to a lot of helpful people on this site a big thankyouAll of these cars BEG for bigger wheels and tires. Using the factory stock sizes just looks bad to me.
