I got 295/65r15 M/t E/t street radials on the back with the 3"inboard kit as well. Did hav 29x12.5x15 Mickey Thompson Sportsman's on but they rubbed to much when i have the kids in the back. The Et's are only an 1/8th of an inch narrower but it did help. It sit's kinda low too. Without anything in the back they don't rub at all. Hope this help's.

Hello, I am a long time mopar fan but just joined this site today.

 I have a set of Wheel Vintiques 15X10" rallye wheels with 6" of back space.
The rear axle is stock width.
The Spring perches are reloacted inboard  .80 of an inch. (Morroso uses a smaller center register hole and the Mopar brand uses too large of a hole)
I used the a body front offset hangers, the only E body units listed were for the super stock springs and that accounts for a different length spring
I used stock springs these pics will be old taken as the job was done, car is now painted

Thanks, I should add the wheel lips are stock nothing but the spring perches was really modified. The tire is a 12.5 at the bulge  and is 10" at the tread contact patch so basically like a 295 50 15

That is pretty close!! Maybe a gnat hair! May want to relocate springs. My tires are 10" so a little more clearance and have 10" smaller factory drums in the rear.

Nahh, that spot is a point of the sidewall the moves very little, if at all, so it won't contact the spring in normal use. I've run that clearance down as little as .125 without contact on street tires. Now drag slicks or other soft sidewall d.o.t. cheater tires may be at risk, but even then, they don't flex much at that point.

I've got 16x10's all a round with 255/50/16's on my Cuda. Ordered them way back in 1988. Fit perfectly.

Would love to see pics of the rims on your car!  :grinyes:


Ooops, just found pics in your old posts!  Looks good!  I haven't seen Cragar S/S rims in 16" before!

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.
