sneakers for '71 R/T

[Skytrooper]

I will be needing new sneakers for my 71 charger, in the semi-near future. I was wondering what are the widest 15's that will fit without rubbing.

Hey tnfastback you need some potatos with that meat you have on the back of your wagon

With stock springs a 9.5 wide rim is a nice fit.
Dr. Diff makes an offset shackle that gives you 3/4” more room.
Usually depending on the bulge of the rubber a 4.5- 4 3/4” BS is about max you can get.
I have a 4 link and can fit a 5.5 BS rim on my Charger.

I have the year one rallye wheels in an 8x17, they have a 4.25" back spacing and using a 255/50 tire, they fit with 1.5" of clearance to the factory HD springs with plenty of room to the 1/4 panel. I am considering going to the 9" rim that have a 5" back space and some 305/45r17 Mickey Thompson SS tires, might be a little close to the spring without offset hangers, anyone used these on a 71 Charger.
