    New Mickey Thompson ET Drags wheels

    OK. Enough is enough. This thread is showing ONLY pictures of bad *** cars and I, frankly, am sick and tired of seeing them. I have run out of rocks to throw at my car and have been relegated to throwing golf balls and lugs nut at it. I just can't look at them anymore.

    Biggest tire under a stock suspension dart????

    I have a set of 255-60R-15 Mickey Thompson ET street tires mounted on a 15x8 rim with a 4-1/4" backspace. I also have the MP SS springs. There is a 1/4 inch clearance from the inside of the tire to the leaf spring and about 1/2 inch of clearance to the fender. Air down the tires to18lbs and you...

    G60-15 replacement question

    255/60-15 M/T ET Street Radials. Sorry for the tilted camera angle. The car does sit level. But sometimes my brain doesn't. Launching at 2500RPM is fun now.

    G60-15 replacement question

    I have these G60-15 tires but they don't seem to grip well. So I am looking to replace them with the Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials. My question is which size tire is closest to the G60-15's I have now. The 255/60-15 or 235/60-15. The G60-15s I have now clear the leafs by about 1/4 inch...

    You know..I am running 35lbs pressure in those tires. Maybe I'll air them down like you said.

    No traction

    This is such good feedback. I don't know what I was thinking. I can do the mechanicals. I did the the engine, trans, driveshaft,rear 8-3/4, and springs but am just dumb when it comes to tires. The springs are the MP super stock springs and I moved the battery to the trunk. The 742 has an...

    I remember my 70 Cuda having those Goodyear Polyglas GT tires but I don't remember losing so much grip. I was in the process of switching my front tires to the same type of tires so they weren't mis-matched. Looks like a set new tires is on the horizon.

    Hello folks..I need some advice. I scored(or so I thought) a pair of vintage G60-15 Biased Ply tires. They were never mounted and still had that waxy blue stuff on them. They were stored inside and you could tell they were still soft. Not rot whatsoever. And they balanced out real nice.They are...

    New Wheels for my '69 Dart!

    Both your cars look great. I have tried several times to change my wheels but EVERYONE says they love the dog dish look and I should keep them. That's why I still have them.

    Goodyear Polyglas Tires

    Don't forget the 4 wheel drum brakes in the rain! I had those polyglas tires on my 69 roadrunner with four wheel drums on a road trip from Cali to Utah. In the rain. Trying to control the hydroplaning with braking gave a whole new meaning of Mui Machismo.

    SBP 15" Rallye wheels

    They fit perfect with about a 1/2 an inch on either side of the tire. No rolling of the fender was needed. Center caps are the 1970, cone style with the light grey argent. Trim rings are polished.

    SBP 15" Rallye wheels

    I have a set of SBP Ralleys(Wheel Vintiques) for sale. Hardly used. Have lugs, trim rings and center caps(steel). 2 are 15x7 with 4-1/4 backspace and 2 are 15X6 with 4" backspace. Currently have new Cooper Cobras mounted on them. 245-60-15 on the 15X7s and 235-60-15 on the 15X6s. All told I have...

    Back Spacing ?

    Yes. I have 15X7s with a 4-1/4 backspace, and with a set of Cooper Cobra radials @ 245-60-15. I have 1/2 inch of space from the tire to the rear leafs..both sides. So figure with 4-1/2 backspace you will have a 1/4 inch space between tire and springs. Note:all cars are different and so are tire...

    245 60 14 on 69 Dart

    I just talked to the wheel fabricator from Stockton Wheel while at Spring Fling. He says if you are waiting for a set of custom 15" SBP steel wheels there will be a substantial wait. He can't build the wheels unless he has cores to reuse. He currently has none but is always on the lookout for...

    245 60 14 on 69 Dart

    With that much clearance you have a 4" offset. I have a 4-1/2 offset and have about 1/4 inch space to the leaf spring. I wonder if you could fit 255s in there?

    245 60 14 on 69 Dart

    I agree. Looking at these beautiful Darts just wants to make me throw up. I have such a long way to go.

    225/70-14 Anyone?

    I run 215/70-14s all the way around. You can see my gallery and get a pretty good idea of what it looks like. I live in Torrance. If you are close you can come by and see in person. Doug

    Dumb question of the day time

    thanks. I have the car jacked up by the axle. Make sense. Sometime my stupid brain gets in the way of common sense.
