    Tire size for my scamp

    Additional note: When searching the tire size, include results for '67+ Dart (not Dart Sport). Same rear wheel wells and fender openings as a Scamp. You should be able to go 225 70 in the rear (235 may physically fit, but you're going to run into issues with speedometer calibrations); but I...

    Will 225/70/14 tires fit on a stock 1969 Dart?

    I should have said with 225/70/14 with drums and sbp rallies they rubbed a little on the front. Went to the lbp rallies with the disc brake conversion and they rubbed more. That conversion pushes the wheels out a little. Then the tire size change to 225/60/14 solved the problem.

    Appropriate Wheel Offset for 18" Wheels?

    In the front you'll want to check the rim to UCA clearance at full steering lock and suspension extension, and then the tire clearance at full lock on the frame. You may need a small spacer, it will depend on what UCA's you've got and how tall your front tires are going to be. And how tall the...

    Post your wheel and tire combos.

    I think the magnums look great on your car, and I would keep it to a 205 tire on the front. The 225/70 rear should be fine, I ran them for a couple years on my 70 Dart without issues. Just my opinion.

    15 x 7s, what size would you run on a 68 four door dart ?

    The backspacing is pretty important, with a little extra backspacing you can get taller than 26”. And it’s also a height/width thing, the wider the tires are the less height you get. So some of the drag racers run quite a bit taller than 26”, but they’re super narrow tires that sit in from the...

    Tire size for 70 dart

    I just ordered to steely 15X7 with 4”bs for the rear of my 1970 dart swinger. It still has the 7.25 rear ended with XHD leafs springs. Will 255/60r15 work without moving the leafs? Or should I play it safe with some 245/60r15s

    Dart Rear Wheel Question

    I'm sure you have all experienced the problems with getting the rear wheel off on '67 and later Darts. I currently have 225/60/14 mounted on stock 14" rally wheels, and they are a little bit of a challenge to get off the axle. I have to get the body of the car up, and hang the axle down...

    Help me pick a tire size!

    Nice looking Dart. Do you run this size on all 4 corners? What size wheels are you running? I am dreading picking which tires to buy because I know jack-shizz about tires. I need to make a decision in the next few weeks and its giving me anxiety. I have Wheel Vintiques Ralleys in 14" x 6" (4"...

    Wheel and tire advice for 1967 Dart

    The front wheel wells are the same at the chassis on all A-bodies. The only differences come from the fender shape and the shape/size of the wheel opening on that fender. Barracuda’s are the most restrictive for front tire height, the lower front corner of the wheel opening protrudes more and...

    Did they make 5x4” axles for 8 3/4 rear ends?

    Contact Moser Engineering, They have the proper hub size and offset for the brakes on there axles. When I bought my Moser axles for the 70 A body 8 3/4 housing with 10 inch drum brakes that was in my 66 Dart, Moser new exactly what I needed and even offered to drill both bolt patterns in them at...

    340 Gets Terrible Gas Mileage

    What is the "performance cam?" What rear gear? What rear tire size? Be honest do you keep your "foot out of it?" And what kind of driving we talking about, suburban fair number of stops/ lights, or highway, or what, and what cruise speed? What does the tach turn for XX mph, say 55...

    Max rear tire size on 17" rim 70-73 DART

    Can someone tell me how big I can go on rear tire size. Running 17" rims on stock suspension, 71 dodge dart swinger

    Post your 10 second combo

    700-750 ought to do it. If you could lose a couple of hundred pounds that would help a lot. Rear end gearing and tire size should get you to where you want to be, provided you can rev that motor high enough. 6.35 8th mile and 10.0 quarter.

    What's the absolute maximum range of your Duster?

    Jumpin' Jehoshaphat ! If it's a stock slant 6 and at 14.7, I'd be look'n into that before I even thought of leaving. Ouch to that!! Even at 70 mph, I'd think 20 + would be more than reasonable to get. We got 17 mpg with a '70 dodge truck with a 340 and mild cam at 65 mph on a 2000 mile...

    Factory wheels

    Dusters/Demons/Dart Sports can actually fit wider tires in the rear, the wheelhouses are actually bigger. Equal diameters is a personal preference, and honestly most people prefer to have taller tires in the rear. Just look at any of the wheel and tire threads, most run a staggered set up with...

    Someone tell me I ordered the right thing please

    You might as well get used to the idea of moving the springs AND narrowing the rear end, lol. Try this; Remove a wheel, support the axle at ride height. Measure from the inner edge of the outter lip to the back wall ..... where the sidewalls will be. You will probably have to drop plumblines to...

    Max tyre size different on ss springs?

    Nope. Just a 1/2" spring offset like the OP is planning Barracuda is a completely different animal than a Dart. About an extra 1" to the quarters compared to a Dart. What will fit a Barracuda, Duster/Demon/Dart Sport is completely different than what will fit on a Dart. Same for the SS spring...

    275/60/15 woes

    There are far more Dusters/Demons/Dart Sports with 275's mounted on them successfully than cars that they didn't work on. The OP's car will most likely be just fine with a 1/4 spacer and nothing else. I'm well aware of problems in ordering rims, I've maxed out the rim and tire widths on pretty...
