Spare tire color
« on: April 11, 2014 - 04:26:14 PM »
What color would the spare tire rim be in a 70 Challenger?

What wheels did the car come with?  Road wheels ,14" Rallye wheels or full wheel covers would have had a black spare.  14's with dog dish caps were painted body color.  You would have gotten a body color wheel. 15" wheels(Rallye or steel with dog dish caps) would have come with a space saver.  Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
