    Has anyone had experience with Kumho tires

    Ran 2 sets on the 2wd Durango we had for about 80k miles. Dont remember which Khumos they were, but I really liked them.

    Replacement drums and hubs for 1969 Dart with 5x4.5 lugs?

    I believe all front drum A bodies were the small bolt pattern. The only got large BP from 73 up with disk brakes.

    small bolt pattern hangup

    All A body 8.75 were small bolt pattern. doctordiff.com is where you need to be. Of course, then you have to upgrade the front brakes to big bolt as well.

    Tire advice

    I just put cooper cobra 245/60 15's on the rear of my Shelby Dakota and 225/70's up front. Should have gone with a 215 on the front, but that's another story. LOL. Ordered from either Tire Rack or Simple Tire.

    Sum-bugger....

    Update that i should have posted Aug 30.... So I found stainless screws identical to the originals at Lowe's. All is good, and putting the finishing touches on as time allows.

    Sum-bugger....

    So I bought my Shelby Dakota new in 89. I had the good sense to buy a set of center caps from the dealer in 92 or so. Fast forward to today and guess what? Only 1 of the my NOS never opened, wrapped together in the same box for 30 years centers came with the attaching screw.... Wouldn't be a...

    My son has 15x7 wheel vintiques' rallye wheels on the rear of his 65 B'cuda. 4.25 backspace and 235/60's. Springs and wheel lips untouched. He's got a half inch clearance on both the outside and inside of the sidewalls.

    snow plow tires

    I liked my BFG rugged trail LT's on my 2500..... until they were almost down to half tread. That is when they got hard and slick. At that point, they were bad in the rain and sucked in the snow unless I dropped them to 30 psi. That made them a little better in the snow. I really like my...

    snow plow tires

    Now don't confuse smooth for round....duh! My wife's 2wd Durango is terrible in the snow. Few years ago I put Goodyear MTR's on it. Is almost unstoppable in up to 6-8 inches of snow now. But they are noisy as he'll on dry roads and generally ride like crap. My Nitto are a good ride year round.

    snow plow tires

    Round ones. Preferably black.:poke: Nitto terra graplers do real well on my 2500 Ram.

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    I do a walk around at every fuel and food stop, as well. I'll push each tire pretty hard with the ball of my foot to make sure they are all still hard. I also feel each wheel at the hub to see if one is any hotter than another indicating a possible bearing starting to fail or stuck brakes. I've...

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    Yes. It looks painful. Lol

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    Agreed . Don't know if I could get my spread chocks between mine if I went to an 85 series and lost an inch of space between them. I've got a good 6 inches or more above them.

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    The torsional load is my concern on the LT as well. They do a lot od "twisting" backing the camper in at near 90 degrees to the truck

    235/80/16 is on the camper.

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    That's the kind of input I'm looking for - from someone in the tire business. So that leads me to another question. I've seen people running LT on their trailers. I've thought about that very thing. Any pros and cons to running a load range E truck tire as opposed to an E trailer tire? I'm...

    Trailer tires - what are you running?

    With all the china-bomb tires sold on new trailers, what are you guys replacing them with? In 2010 I took the bombs off the 2006 camper at 4 yrs old cuz one had developed a helluva bulge while camped at Myrtle Beach. Had Black's Tire service come out and set me up with GY Marathons. traded that...

    Tire size needed

    Have 235/60/15 under my son's 65. I'd think a 245/60/15 should fit your Dart without issue.

    Wheel Vintiques center hole vs. stock hub

    We put WV 15 inch ralleys on the rear of Jake's 65 and they fit the axle perfectly..... could the KH front hubs be a frog hair bigger than the rear center? I'd have the hubs turned down a mil or 2 and be done with it.

    Need Help with 66 Dart Wheels and Tires

    On Jake''s 65 B'cuda, we have 15x7 with 4.25 back space rallye from wheel vintiques and stock early 70''s 14" rallye up front. 235/60/15 and 195/70/14. in our opinion, it gives it that classic muscle car stance and look for the year. I don't have a profile pic of it on my phone....... What...

    Rallye wheels from wheels vintiques?

    We ended up with their 15 inch rallye on the rear of Jake's 65 B'cuda. put 235/60/15 on it and might be able to go with 245's.... so I would say yes you will be fine with your 14 inched choice.
