Wheel change on the T/A clone
« on: November 04, 2006 - 05:48:41 PM »
I've been playing with Mopars for over 30 years, and it still amazes me how much a wheel change can alter the personality of a car. Installed the 15 inch rallyes on the Challenger today, check the pics below, B4 and after.

That looks great Larry, I was amazed at the difference in my old car when I switched back to the rallyes as well.   :wow:

Like the rallyes much better. Lighter color wheel and trim rings blend in better with car color.

Rallye wheels look better, but on the Challengers I like the MAGS best!!!!!! :2thumbs:
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

...I agree totally

...I still prefer the "Dog Dish" wheels on most of the MOPARS.....looks like they are there for serious business... :bigsmile:

...if you switch back, try some trim rings on the wheels, it helps

Looks good now too.....both my favorite rims, the 'Cuda will be sporting 15x10 Cop rims once complete.

The Rallyes look way better to me. Muscle car and hubcaps should not be used in the same sentence....

The dog dish wheels give it a sleeper look. The Rally's say "get out of my way".  :burnout:

I'll take the car with either of them thank you.  :lol:
