1968 Hemi Dart wheel well templates
Seeing some updates on this post as of late tells me it’s time to chime in. Decided to check tire fitment on the Dart a few weeks back, some pics.
Bolted on tires from the Plymouth to do a trial fit. 4.5”BS on a 12” rim.
7/8” space on the inside at the closest point. That will work.
Tire sidewall protrudes 1/4” out from the panel, tread nicely tucked on inside of lip.
1.750 space at front, 2” from tire to upper lip. These are Hoosier 18195D06 with 30.6” height, 15.2 cross section & 13.5” tread width. Hoosier 31X14’s will also work nicely.
Installed a set of CE wheelie bars because at some point there will be a trip to the strip and I want nothing to do with the rear bumper dragging the track. Ended up having to angle out the rear mufflers to keep the bars clean when they’re in street mode.
The tires on the Dart pics came off the 64 for trial fit, nice that one tire fits both. This was my last race of the season. Tripped the 60’ beams all day with the rear tires. Tires are Hoosier 18195D06.
