  • need opinions on this wheel set up for my Mopar

    Alright so after long hard thought and saving of money to buy these wheels from Summit Racing. Im going with Vintage Rallye Mopar wheels but this is where i am stuck at the moment. I want to give the Dart Swinger some foward rake while also staggering my tires. I do have Gabriel Hi Jackers in the rear that raise it a little. but i was thinking of going with this set up. 14X6 up front with 215 60's, and 15X6 in the rear with 235 60's. the widest wheel i can fit is 6.5 but they do not make them in that width and 7 inches will rub maybe.. just dont want to take the risk of that. What do you guys think of this. I'm not good with all the mumbo jumbo of set ups and back spacing and so on for wheels and tires.

    I can't even imagine only being able to fit a 6.5 inch wide tire on my car :0

      So i took my Dart to my local Big O and the guy that came out to look at my Dart has a 68 Cuda which is also a Abody and he said i can fit 8 inch wide wheels so i ordered these yesterday, 15X8 with a 5 on 4 bolt pattern with 15X7's in the front, he said they will fit and i guess who ever told me i can only fit a 6.5 was wrong. Plus Summit Racing said those will work on my Abody no problem.

        The stagger sounds pretty nice, actually..... any links to the wheels, or just an image of them?

          Here is a picture Mr. Stoops, i just got the bare grey powder coat wheels with no beauty rings or center caps right now. The beauty rings were a little pricey but there is a classic car swap meet in April in Sacramento and ill find some there. Im trying to go for a super stock drag car look even though its a 318 lol

            Should be a good look all around on the Dart, Alex. Smart move looking for trim rings at a swap meet! Looking forward to some pix when you get these on the car.
