Billet Rallye Wheels & Cuda
« on: March 01, 2008 - 12:19:31 PM »
Looking for Cuda pictures with Billet Rallye Wheels.

http://www.magnumforce.com/mopar_rallye_wheels.asp

It seems that these are not so popular there is USA. What is the reason for that?
Current Vehicles:
Plymouth PPR Cuda 1970 489 cid
Plymouth GTX 1970 RS23V0E


Sorry my bad english...I'm just an european...

The Rallye wheel does not translate to the larger sizes very attractively, IMO.

:iagree:
After seeing the photo online I considered those for my car, but then I saw a set in person, and feel that they look a bit "chunky" for my tastes.
Another factor was the price.   :money:

As I was saying...those wheels look like they belong on a semi.

YUK!

IMO, classic cars need classic wheels and tires.

Arctic Cuda here's somemore from Woodward Dream Cruise 06.  I'm sure you've seen this challenger elsewhere.  Hope this helps.

Castiglione (the '08 Challenger designer) said they tried to do a modern Rallye wheel for the '08 but couldn't get it to look right.  Hence the 5-spoke.

I agree the old wheels just dont work in a 17 for some...

I think a new style 17 in some sort is better than a retro in a 17.

I do like the classics in a 15 inch...  IMHO

They fear change :naughty: 15's have their place. Thats sure fine 'everyone' thinks they look good, i'm not worried about 'everyone' here. I like my 'big' wheels.  :2thumbs:

Like mom said, 'if everyone jumped off a bridge, would you?'  :lol: I take that to my wheel preference  :icon16:

Not quite right, since classic wheels are the standard.

It would be more like: "If everyone were standing on the bridge, would you jump off?"   :roflsmiley:
