    Great looking car. What wheel size and tire size are you running?
     
  7. Here's one I had once upon a time. Have two sets wires set aside for the next project. Tim 100_0105.JPG

    Do Chrysler wires in 15" have a deeper backspace than other Kelsey-Hayes wheels ? Bent-wires look so good.
     
  10. I assume you are asking me. They 6:50X16 Firestone bias ply with tubes. I have the rims sealed where the spoke heads are on the inside with black RV silicone & primed. I also cut a strip of inner tube & stuck it over the silicone.

    Travis,
    I'm running 550-18's on a 4" wide wheel up front and a 7.00-18's on a 5 1/2" wheel in the rear. Both front and rear are Firestone bias ply with tubes. P4180006.jpg

    What wheels are these, they are the ones I love!

    They are what I had in mind when I created this picture:
