    Maybe the calipers mount to the front like a stocker and thats why the hoses are so long?

    It looks amazing either way, but that is something to think about.

    Ok looks like I have it narrowed down to three different sets of wheels but I don’t know.
    What do you guys think?

    What sizes are they?

    I like the first set.  But the second is classic too.

    Hey DB,

    Can you shrink the pictures a little please.   The first pic was my vote aswell but after shuffling the screen over to look i changed my mind to number three. :2thumbs: they have that Rallye kind of look to them.

    I like the Foose version of the ralley. With or with out the rivets. But you can't put the  "Challenger" the smooth ones in the photo thing. I still want to use then on somthing.  :2cents:

    I prefer the yellow and black wheel combinations. Not biased in any way.  :dunno: :clueless:

    Hey DB,

    Thanks for that buddy. :2thumbs: Isn't there other people making the Rallye rims in 17" aswell with out the bolts in the outer rim ?  Or have you thought about the 17" Magnum 500's, or do you not like them..................... :dunno:

    Hemiken
    The 500 are a great 15-inch wheel but I don’t like how they did the ring on the 17’s.
    That other 17 rally has a weird face up by the center cap, I just don’t like either.
    I like the w32 ?? (recall wheel)that you found a while back but I can’t get it in the back space and width I want.

    Whats the news on your cuda is it still one week out?

    Looks great! nice attention to detail, i hope i can get my car lookin that good one day! Hope those heim UCA joints hold up well on the street though.  :clueless:

    That wilwood setup come with its own spindle, or factory?

    Thanks Goody.
    The spindles are part of the AlterKtion kit and are not Dodge parts; however, they do make a brake kit for the dodge disk or drum spindles.
     I don’t think the heim joints will be a problem   :smokin: I won’t be doing any winter or dirt road driving  :eek4: but just in case, seals it makes a dust cover for them that I will be installing before I hit the streets. :burnout:

    I thought about black insets on my wheels but … :dunno: They do look good on your car. :biggrin:

    Ok update time just been doing little stuff and messing with the exhaust pipes & some Interior Wiring.  :blah:

    The old shock holes were bugging me so I put them to work on the driver’s side holding the lines for the hydro boost and I plugged the passenger side with a stainless steel washer and button head bolt. :dunno:

    I wish I had something high tech to cover it with maybe something will come along
