Hello, I am looking to do a little something different with the tireandwheelcombo on my Charger. Currently, running black 18" wheels with low profile tires because thats all you can get on the 18s. id like to go with the Cragar 342 D window wheels and BFG Radial T/A with RWL. should i do the...
I am moving springs inboard and installing the 3 inch wider inner wheel tubs from AMD. The pic shows the wheel/tirecombo that I would like to run. The wheels are a 15x12 and the tire shown is a Mickey Thompson 325/60R15. My question is will this work without other modifications?
For sale are a set of 2 tires/wheels combo. tires are nearly new with all tread. 4 1/2 Mopar pattern. Five lug.
$425 OBO 2x American wheels andtires. 15” wheel. (Basically get the tires for free.)
$375 OBO 2x Whitewall stripe (I think the Magnum design?) 195/75-R14 (brand new tires basically...
...Radials 225/60/15 on all four corners. This was a more stock setup from before the restoration.
I am looking to find the best wheelandtirecombo for the horsepower this car will be making. I see a lot of folks like the 225/70/15 radial tires up front and 275/60/15 in the rear. This looks...
69 RR ... 28 x 12.5 x 15 Mickey Thompsons. These have only 3/4" clearance to the front lip of the quarter. The car is mini-tubbed. 10" wheel with 5-1/2" backspace AND the rear has been narrowed 1/2" per side.
Key points:
28" is as tall as you can go with stock axle location and stock wheel...
Do Summit (and Jegs) still offer to mount and balance your wheeltirecombo for you free before shipping them out to you??? That was a great savings for me a while back.....plus they held all the liability with any potential problems, but there were none.
OK thanks. So Ill have to calculate the height to determine the tire size to match the rear tire height. How do I determine the correct rim size rather than ask again here one I determine the actual tire size I need?
PS I just measured the rear tire height. It’s roughly 27” but hard to measure...
Great thread, super informative. On a thread I started today regarding a spare tire I learned with Suregrip rear end you must use the same height/radius wheeltirecombo otherwise you can mash up the gears.
I currently have 235-60-15 fronts and 275-60-15 rears.
It was suggested to use a...
Agree with Ron H. Tire height is more important in a spare than width, if you have a sure grip. Get a spare the same height as the REAR tire. It should work on the front (if its a little skinnier) fine. Edit: it's a SPARE. I'd suggest.a 225 70 or 75, whichever is the same height as your 275. And...
I bet replacing those tires andwheels will make it ride a whole lot better. Check out the first gen Charger that @Gpuller owns. His tire/wheelcombo looks perfect to me.
I carry a skinny tire as close as possible to the height of the rear tire. 215/75x15 is only 1/4" shorter than a 275/60. 726 revs/mile vs 721. Take a few pounds out of the 275, and they're the same.
I had that same combo before I changed to a 255/65, on 15 x 8, same B/S. 66 coronet, no issues. Although, 8" wheel is pretty wide for a 225 tire, IMHO.
I've been looking at different wheel sizes andtire availabilities with the appropriate speed ratings to pass tech inspection for higher speeds for Open Road racing.
The tire options are slim with the 15 in wheels and there are many choices until you get to 18 in and bigger. I have a 70 Road...
