    Balance beads

    They have a chart for classic cars. They list a 185 70 14 then a 205 75 14. I was wondering about a 195 75 14 so I e-mailed them about it as per the website. I got a reply that said what car is it so I told them 1977 Dodge Aspen. They said it might not be heavy enough. So I e-mailed them back...

    Balance beads

    Has anyone tried anything like this? http://checkeredflagtirebalancebeads.com/ I have been looking it up on the net and either it's great or it's snake oil. What do you think? There are different brands, types and sizes. From air soft ammo to BB's for the DIYer. I was think of using my bubble...

    Do you have a phobia of mixing tire brands?

    I ended up going with Coopers because the my tire guy only had the BFG's for the rears. I did it because I wanted the tread to match. I would just blackwall out the BFG's.

    affordable sbp alloy wheels

    I got them mounted up and they look great. Tire Guy thought I got a good deal. They balanced up with no problems, no excessive use of wheel weights. So I'm happy.

    affordable sbp alloy wheels

    They don't list them on the site. I had to call and they had to check if they could still get them. Here is a 70 Dart on this thread page with them on. http://http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=14254&page=2 As for not buying because they are made in China the price was right...

    affordable sbp alloy wheels

    I talked with Kim today and she was very helpful so TTT. I'm getting a set for my Valiant. They were $75.00 cheaper than the ebay guy shipped. It was down to these or the Torque Thrust. These were 75/wheel cheaper which comes pretty close to buying my tires.

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    cool I have my tire/wheel choices narrowed down to 2. I'll just plan on doing that days off. The wheel brgs probably needed serviced anyway.

    Left handed lugs?

    Well it turns out I have the big bolt pattern. Does this mean the lugs are 1/2"? Thanks Mike

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    I had my buddy go up and look and sure enough it has discs on it. He came up with 4 1/4" but being a chivy guy he probably went center to center. He said I had best take a look at the rotors when I get home $$$$$$$. I found a web site that listed discs as standard on a 75 Brougham. It also told...

    Left handed lugs?

    Thanks I might as well get lug nuts when I order wheels. Am I wrong in presuming the 5X4" pattern has a 7/16th lug? Sorry about all the questions but I'm trying to do the wheel ordering from work. Thanks Mike

    Left handed lugs?

    What year did they change from the left handed lugs to the right handed lugs? I was thinking late 60's. Thanks Mike

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    I thought of that also but my roomate could f/u a wet dream and I would hate for him to mess up one of those original hubcaps. I got a friend I'll call to do it as I'm waiting on a wheel supplier reply I won't get til Monday. I just want to get the wheels and tires there so I can get them on as...

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    I thought of that also but as clean and as staight as the car is I'm willing to bet it is. It has the original hubcaps on it and the original trunk kit is still there and intact. So odds are it is the right one.

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    I got my roomate to get under car and explain what he saw. It sounded like drums to me. He also measured spare at 4". So now it is time to order wheels. Thanks for the help Mike

    Lug pattern 75 Valiant

    I have a 1975 Valiant with the slant six. Do all the slant six cars have the 5 X 4" lug pattern or did some come with a 5 X 4 1/2" pattern? I would just go measure but I'm at work in Kuwait and wanted to order some wheels so they are waiting fro me days off. I'd ask my roomate to go measure but...
