I have a 69' Dart that I'm putting on a Wilwood disk brake kit. The 15" rims i currently have will not work, because the center hub diameter is not large enough.

I'd like to replace them with a new set of Mopar Rallye rims in silver. Looking to do 15x7 in the front on 1/2" studs, with 15x8 on the rear with 7/16" studs.

I've only checked with one place (Coker Tire) so far, but the Rallye's they offer only have a hub dia on ~2.8", and I need a min of 3.24" to work with the disk brake kit. Can anyone suggest other places to look for rims? - or even better, I'm sure I'm not the first person to come up against this, and likely there is already a solution for this somewhere. Any suggestions?

worth noting - it has to be a Wilwood kit as I'm using up credit with them for the kit. I would like to do the Rallyes as I just haven't' seen anything else that i really like as much.

Thanks again in advance.....

Wheel Vintiques is another vender...but IIRC they may be owned by Coker so this may not help. :D

Unfortunately, the center hub diameter is what it is for an OEM wheel. Unless there's something I don't know here about variations on OEM wheels (which honestly, is pretty common) you will probably have to consider aftermarket wheels to find something that will accommodate that hub.

It's always a pain to have to adapt your vision for your car but I have to imagine that those brakes will be worth the effort.
