My Uncle is running Ultra Type 50/51's (I believe). 15x7s in the front with 235/60s and 15x10s in the rear with 275/60s. The wheel place he took it too didn't know what the hell they were doing and messed up on the rear backspacing. I don't know if you can see it in the pics but, she rubs ALOT ! Here are pics of the front and rear.

     :iagree: with Rob!!!     Polish the mags you've got and it will look 100% different!!!!    I swear!!!   My cousin had a set on a 72 Chevelle he had bought and it looked like....well lets just say black stock rims would have made the car look better!   He polished the slots to what robs look like and  WOW!!!   what a difference!

Slotted mags rule! Got them on my '66 440 Charger. I put the stock '67 Charger wheelcovers on my '67 Charger. And the '68 R/T Charger has some aftermarket centerline musclecar wheels. But my favorites are the slots!

Really, the stock wheels are the shit, and there are none better - but if you insist, crager five spokes will do.

I wanna get some slots on my car.   Right now I don't know what these are, sort of like General Lee style, but wider, maybe 15x9, with 265-60-15's on all four.     

    Ya, brushed aluminum slots can get very shiny, almost like chrome, they oxidize pretty fast, I clean my Bronco rims about once a year, they are polished aluminum, brushed aluminum, whatever, they almost look like chrome, but they are aluminum like your slots.   Use Mother's rim polish, takes some time, but they shine up great with that stuff.  The more oxidized they are, the more time, maybe a lot of time.  But then maintenence cleaning of them isn't that bad.

    


Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.

hmmm, MOthers Polish works good, maybe i'll give them a try and see if I like them, They do look nice polished up.

:drool: for the vectors too. Lots of nice looking rims in here :D

Didja find any centercaps yet?

Polishing works wonders on old slots... I had them on my 1st Charger way back in the stone age.   

I got Cragar S/S's now.   No need for pics.  The subject on sizes gets brought up all the time...  most people have the memory of a gnat when it comes to these things  :P
