Magnum 500, 54 or 94 series?
« on: August 29, 2012 - 07:12:56 AM »
I'm having front and rear discs installed so I need to change up from 14" wheels and I'm fairly dead set on some 15" Magnum 500s. The only issue is I'm not sure whether to go with the steal 54 series or billet 94 series wheel. Does anyone have any comparison images of those two types of 15" magnum 500s on a Cuda or Challenger?

Just a suggestion... unless your restoring to stock I'd look at 17"  ( or bigger) rims? Your choices for performance tires are ....about nill!

For tires I plan to use Radial TA's.
Its not that I'm doing a dedicated stock restoration, but I'd like to maintain the majority of the original styling. I also appreciate the performance characteristics and advantage of larger wheels, but they've never been particularly inspiring to me interms of styling.

For the comparison images I don't mind about the size of the wheel, I'm mostly trying to determine how the styling of the two different wheels look against the car.
