    First thanks everyone for the warm welcome, this seems like a pretty active site, I joined Moparnutz a year ago & only saw two or three posts a day & just kinda dropped out, I think this place is active enough it will keep me interested..
    Now for Super Blues question..

    :wave: Welcome, 1 Wild R/T!

    Car looks great!

    Curious, what size tires do you have front and rear?  Looks real nice!  Are they 14"?
     


    The tires are 235/60-15's in the front & 255/60-15's in the rear, I had the wheels modified to 15x7 & 15x8 by Wheel Vintiques, the car is fairly stock but 14" tires just don't fill the wheel well IMO...

    BTW on the cruise picture above just so no one gets the idea I only hang with other Challenger owners...Heres a group photo...

    That must have been a nice scenic cruise. It looks heavily Mopar too.  :droolingbounce:

     :thumbsup: Thanks for the info!

    I was wondering because they looked bigger than 14" but it looks like you're using trim rings which I usually see on 14" wheels?  :clueless:

    Yeah most guys buy the repo chromed Magnum 500's that Wheel Vintiques has been selling for the last 5-6 years, I wanted to keep the brushed trim ring look when I had them built 11+ years ago, the chromed barrels don't look "correct" IMO.. Though I will be using them on my 68 Coronet when it's finished as that would be more correct...Just a little "Larger" at 15x8 & 15x10... :bigshades:
