Wheel choice help needed.
Guys
Keep coming back to this so it's obviously an itch for me.
I want to change the wheels on my Charger.....don't want stock.
I think the car needs a bit of contrast cos the colour is pale. I want classic wheels not modern bling.
The current wheels are 16"
What are your thoughts..?

You can't go wrong with a set of "Budgies" (Torq Thrust D's), but if you want to be a bit different, how about some Ansen Sprints with some tall rubber, or AR500's in 18 with some low profile rubber.

How about Kelsey Hayes recall wheels with red line tyres, will be the only car over her with them http://wwnboa.org/khw.htm I believe you can get reproduction wheels as the originals are silly money.

Petrol is for washing parts, Alcohol is for drinking, Nitro is for racing!!!

Always liked those Kelsey Hayes recalled wheels - I'd be tempted if I had a Charger
Also like those AR500's you mentioned Adam, or there's simiar from Budnik - come in sizes from 15x6 to 22x15

Check out this Charger over on 'For B Bodies Only', who's going for 18x8 & 19x11

These look cool

Anyone know what sizes wheel and tyre combo would work with say a 17" wheel??
Would appear that Torque thrust D's only go to 8x17 ....I thought they went wider??

Thanks Rich.....very kind of you to say.Dukerich wrote:IMHO I think your wheels look ace. Cool, classic 5 spoke.
I thought about those exact wheels for mine before I went in a different direction. Yours compliment the trim on the car.
I love the wheels and stance of your car. It's what I used as a guide when I lowered the ass end of mine.
Any pics of your car?

wheel choice
hi lee, if that was my car i would go for the ar 500s classic mopar style yet modern, but be careful not to go too low on profile,black with chrome would look fantastic to compliment a large sunfire yellow car richard

Hi Richard......I agree it's then a case of getting the optimum sizes.68Roadrunner wrote:hi lee, if that was my car i would go for the ar 500s classic mopar style yet modern, but be careful not to go too low on profile,black with chrome would look fantastic to compliment a large sunfire yellow car richard
