    Barracuda Wheels

    as stephen stated earlier, the original cars weren't designed for the sizes of wheels and Horse power people like today, and you can't argue with the laws of physics. I believe in safety first,,,I can attest to the fact that if you put a 300 HP 340 in an otherwise stock early A body and don't...

    Barracuda Wheels

    someone makes support cross members for the 64-66 A bodied for guys that want to safely drive them with 300+ horsepower,but it has been a while, so my memory escapes me as to who it was.The lack of a second cutout for dual exhaust also hinders getting good exhaust,if you want to keep some...

    Barracuda Wheels

    that car was never designed for the wheels you are looking for. The chassis is weak, and the brakes are poor. So, more modifications will be needed. the frame is so weak if you jack up the front you need to keep the doors closed. go to a newer 67 up A Body .I have a 65 GT 273 four speed car, so...

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    The car came from out west, and is close to being an unrestored original. The car is an all original slant six Automatic. It has the original Interior, and the rubber flooring. Manual steering and brakes. The car has barely 70k on it. Originally I was going to convert it over with a...

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    Beautiful dart, I am a fan of Yellow. I did steelies and blackwalls later, and the GTS grill was put back, as well as the Black GTS stripe.

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    That is what I like, and the yellow looks great! I guess black wall out will have to do. Very nice car!

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    The others RWL tires are not the same, and aren't allowed to be. BF Goodrich tires have the same style they had in 1970. I am ok with that, as I was around then. it is their design, but they are also more expensive than the competition. there is a reason for that.The patent for the exact...

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    I feel B.F.Goodrich is taking advantage of the hobbyist by charging so much just for a RWL tire. They are on average 40 Bucks more each than the competition for the same size . They own the patent, so they have the right. But, They aren't worth an $160 bucks extra per set to me. And, I admit...

    That is a nice Challenger! The whites on the color matched wheels look just like I remember in 1970.

    1971 Demon what's the Vote?

    Not a serious post clearly, but it would be fun which way the winds blow here. I am Installing Factory rallyes on my 71' Demon. Half of me wants whites out, as I'm old. the other half wants white letters. Unfortunately, Letters are out. I have new Tires, and they are 205/70-14 White walls. I am...

    Are 15 inch wheels any better than fourteen inch wheels?

    size is the problem, nobody makes a decent 225-70 or 235-70x14 anymore. besides, these cars had tall tires in the day. 26-27 inches normally.not 24-25. I use 15's because I want the height, and the new disc brake rotors/calipers are too big for a 14 inch wheel. I think I have the last set of...

    Does anyone run 13 inch tires any more

    The brakes work better, as I noticed 14's decreased stopping ability on the 9' inch brakes

    Does anyone run 13 inch tires any more

    In the day they weren't that small, as bias ply tires were pretty tall. Nowdays the radials squat pretty good. But, I have 13's on my 66, and it drives quite nicely.

    whos running stock tire size on their Dart 340?

    I use 205/70-14 on both my 69' Darts. The 195/70 seemed too small. 215/70 looked too big. I stick to stock specs, I drove them when they were new, and prefer them that way today.

    Mopar Rally wheels or Cragar SS

    Even my 71 demon has stock wheels and caps, and the 69' came as seen. I may bend on rallys on the demon, as the budget affords it.:)

    Mopar Rally wheels or Cragar SS

    No Rally wheels on a pre 70 dart. It looks hokie! I have four darts, and unless it's a 70' or newer A body, those wheels aren't an option. I'm old and stodgy!

    Dart drivers with "stock" look that includes whitewalls

    I have the tiger paw and can't recommend them. They bulge at the sides, and growl above 65 mph. I had to put 35psi in them just to get some road control. it's like the tire is rolling around on the rim. Hancooks are much better. I Intend to look at the cooper trendsetter myself. for my Charger.

    14" SBP wheel rub

    I can't see that wide of a tire on the front of an A body. I would recommend 205/70 0r 215/70, no wider. But I believe in hubcaps! HA HA
