Wondered if anyone knows if a model 231 Mopar AM radio out of a 1966 Fury would fit into a 1965 barracuda? Picked one up in great shape on the cheap. Hoping it does? Maybe I would just have to do a little shaving?

So I bought 4 of the last 15x6 steelies small bolt pattern with 3.75 offset from summit. Wondered if I can have some advice on tire size I should go with for the front and rear? Just want to stay away from the “raked” look if possible. I appreciate everyone’s input.

I bought the 15x6 3.75 bs for the rears and was going to run the 14x4.5 oem in front. I’m second guessing my purchase and I’m afraid I was impulsive? What are your thoughts?

Next consideration is the tire size for 15x6 3.75 offset and factory 14x4.5 fronts. Thanks for everyone’s help.

Went with the last steelies from summit. I’ll have those on the rear and use my 14” 4.5 wide for the front. Hope I made a solid decision? Felt some pressure to order because of them being the last ones being made.

Did you go with the steelies? I am looking to put the same ones on a 65’ Barracuda in the rear. I have 14” 4.5 for the front.

Think the 15”x6 with the back spacing of 3.75 would be a solid fit for the rear? Just confirming before summit runs out.

Whoops….they are 15x6 not 15x7

Or I was thinking of these … They are 15x7. 3.75 backspacing and for the rear of the car. I have nice 14x 4.5 steelies that would be for the front. I’d paint them either black or body color. The pic above is a new wheel. Thoughts?

I was worried mostly about the rear opening because of the barracuda “skirt” look. Rolling the panels isn’t an option. I already have paint and body done. I have a 3 hour drive ahead and thought I’d ask the experts.

Hey everyone, I am in need of help. I found some nice rims and tires for my 1965 barracuda. Wondered if the below described will fit or if the backspacing is going to be too tight? AD: Fronts are 15x6 with 3.75” backspacing (+6mm offset), rears are 15x7 with 4” backspacing (0mm offset)...

I’m stuck right now as well. Did you figure out what you needed and the sequence? My bushings were pretty dry rotted that’s why I removed them. Having a hard time even figuring out the parts needed. Any help would be appreciated! Done shocks before figured it would be the easy part.

Oh man I hope he is doing well. I’ll be praying for him. I never thought I was being ignored and thanks for the heads up.

Great idea! Thanks for the help. Much appreciated. This website and the people on here have been a treasure for me.

Old thread but how did you eventually get the fan separated from the motor? Mine is rusted on and is a pain. Kind of at a loss because I can’t afford to break anything because of part availability.
