Re: Got some new wheels!

started putting the new brakes on the front now that the wheels are on. I still have to do the other side and swap the spindles but I wanted to see what it would look like...

Went to order mine last week but have to fine tune my measurements a little more, like what brakes ill be using and offsets.  Hopefully they will be my last big purchase but seeing yours makes me want to hurry up and buy buy buy !

Man, that, last pic looks awesome!  :grinyes:
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

U will not be dissappointed with BAER.  Good choice on the black calipers. You won't have to wipe them down as much.  Looks stellar!!  What's going out back? Same?  I wanna upgrade to the 6 pistons too.   Thanx for posting!  Looking GREAT!!!   :woohoo:   R/T

We always had good luck with baer products at the shops I worked at. I like their stuff. Eventually I want to run discs in the rear but since the rear doesn't contribute as much to stopping power, they are lower on the list of things to do.

Someone at the Gear head show got some decent pics of your ride! Those breaks and wheel tire combo look killer!
