    15x7" Rallye Rims, Anyone got 245's on theres?
    « on: April 04, 2005 - 01:01:40 AM »
    I am looking at gettin some 15x7" Rallies because my 15x8" will look dumb with the 15x7" trim piece gap.  :ack:

    But, I hate the look of 15x7" wheels, to skinny and make the car appear fatter than it really is.

    I want my car to look like it's siiting strong, NO sagging.

    So........has anyone got photos with there Challenger/Cuda with 15x7" Rallye wheels in either 245s or 255s?


    Thanks,
    Carl  ;)

    NZ,
      I have 14X6's on the front, and 15X7's on the back. I have 60 series 255's on the back. I like the look. It's not too outragous. I can't believe they make 15X8 wheels with no trim rings for them  :mad:\

    Thanks guys.....

    It's more the front or rear view I don't like, they look skinny and useless.

    Any photos from the front/rear?

    Thanks (as always)

    NZ,
      This probably won't help you a whole lot, but here are a couple of pics. The fronts are 14X6 with 70 series 225 tires. The rear are 15X7 with 60 series tires and 255's. I was going for a high profile rather than something wide, but this will give you some idea. Maybe those 15x8 cop wheels are more to your liking  :dontknow:

    I think your right Mike, the Cop rims will go on first, if I like the fit and the size (15x8") I'll look at some options on getting my 15x8" wheels complete with great fitting trim pieces.

    Thanks for the photos mate.  ;)

    Don,
      I hope you are talking about the back.  :laughing: 15's can go on the front too, but a MUCH lower profile.
