17" package on '70 Challenger
« on: February 02, 2015 - 10:25:48 AM »
I probably put this first post in wrong thread - so here goes:

I've tried search ... and reading pages .... lol ... but ... want to verify something.

For 1970 Challenger (stock suspension and rear end config) I am looking for something in 17" that will fit with no issues nor any customization.

I want to try to retain stock look ... but better rubber ... so:  17" X 8" cast aluminum "Mopar Rallye" wheel YearOne (https://www.yearone.com/Product/challenger-cuda/mrw178slvs)

They state "Original fitment test done with 245/45-17 BF Goodrich G-Force T/A-KDW tires."

Can anyone help confirm these rim with tire specs above fit no problem?

I understand you need different lug nuts .. that's fine.

Pics if anyone has these would be awesome!

Or if anyone knows of any other brand that are Mopar Rallye style in 17in   ...  :thumbsup:

Thanks all ... awesome site for great info!

Trying to see if we can hit Carlisle this year as well ... never been ... would be awesome!

I just put this exact package on my 1972 with 17 x 8 in front and 17 x 9 in back with their recommended tire size.

They fit with no problem.  Suspension is stock.  I did the Rallye wheels with the acorn center cap.
