Hi guys,

Can you Tell me the size of the rim?
It is a 14" magnum 500 but 6 or 6.5 ?

I need two New ones, they are not running very good and. I have a Vibration. Tires are freshly balanced and New, BF Goodrich Radials.

Tire Shop told me they are not running very good....

I think I will buy 14x7, tires are 225/70


Thx a lot and best wishes from germany.

Claus

Depending on the vintage, Mag 500 (Mopar) were commonly 5.5 or 6". I think later models had 7"; not sure. Measuring a wheel:

The tire shop has a measuring device that touches the outside of the rim lip to measure width, just will likely have to convert to SAE
 
The M4 is a date code, I believe, to be in this case December 1974 M=12th month (no letter "I" to confuse with a number "1") and "4" being 1964 or 1974. If I'm wrong, someone will shout out, I'm sure.

The "8" and "12" are a definite mystery to me.
