Hey guys-
I'm looking to put Ansen mags on my Dart. I can only find 15x7's for 5x4" bolt pattern. Will this work on my car, or do I need to find 14" rims? What size tire can I get away with on 15" rims for my car?

Thanks!

This pic has inspired me to find Ansen's... :notworth:

I have 15x7's on the rear of my 66 and they fit well with 235/60-15 bfg. I moved the springs in 3/4" however. I have 15x6 tork thrusts on the front and they rub the very lower front edge on the whell opening with a 205/70-15 tire, but I think a 60 series tire will cure it.
 
Where did you find Torqthrusts with a 4" bolt pattern? I went to the American Racing website, and Ansen's are the only model they list with a 4" bolt pattern.
 
I'll keep my eye on this, see if I can get em... Prolly get out bid :(

Mike - I wish that was mine! Mine is a GT hard top... Still cool, but mine needs alot of work.

Dave, It looks a lot like mine. How do I attach a photo?
 
When you post a reply, scroll down and look for a tab that says manage attachments. You can then attach a small jpeg.

I found an older (smaller) photo. I'll give it a try.

Actually the max file size is more like 40k bytes. You need to use Paint or some other picture editor to reduce the size. Usully 640x480 works.
 
Sorry, I should have told you that I converted the fronts to 73-76 discs with LBP and rears to LBP as well.
 
Hey Dave, Boy, have I been having a hard time getting a photo to load. The one I wanted was 251 mb. Way too big! I found out that I don't know much about a computer! Here I go again>
 
ok, last one i promise. just noticed that 66 is probably the original color of my 64. also i just posted on the newbie forum. my names Jim and i live in MO.

Welcome Jim! I'm from Iowa. My 66 is 'Gold Poly Metallic" Its kind'a gold and a little green. That shade is popular nowdays on quite a few cars. Boy, this websight is fun but I can see that I might not get much work done on my car!
Ha! toolmanmike

I went to the American Racing Wheels site yesterday & they list both a 14x7 & 17x7 slotted aluminum wheel in the small bolt pattern. The backspacing is 4". I think the 14" with that backspacing will hit the upper control arm. I once had wheels with a similar backspacing & had to run spacers on front. Bad idea. The 17" with low profile tires would look good, & should eliminate the interference problem.


:burnout:
 
i want 17'' rims as well. i think theyll look great. not to gangsta and not so tiny like the 13" rims on my car now.
