Hi every body!!

My name is Omid and im from Sweden. Im going to buy a 69 charger r/t # matching in a couple of days.

Im planing to buy new wheels. American racing torqe thrust 2 16.inc. I need some help with this. Whats The original 14 inch whells backspacing and tiers size? A´nd whats the bolt pattern?

Im planing to buy the american ricing wheels 16 inch, is there anything i need to be aware of and what size on the tiers can i use?


Thanks
Omid

terrible one


Welcome!

Your bolt pattern is going to be 5x 4.5". I really don't know the factory backspacing, and it would depend on the wheel/tire options anyways. What widths are you planning to go with for the back and front wheels? If you post that up, someone here can tell you the backspacing that you will need.

SWE

I think i have made up my mind

I´m going with AM Torque Thrust II

FRONT 16x7
0mm offset
4 backspacing

In the rear i dont not what to use i got two alternatives

16x8
+10mm offset
4,7/8  Backspacing


OR

16x8
-11mm Offset
4 Backspacing

what do you think?

The tire combos i was planing to use :

Front:
205/55 r16

Rear
225/55 r16

Or should i use other tire combos? I want the Speedometer to be as accurate as possible


Thanks
Omid

go alot wider. 225 is way too skinny, even for the front. the car will look stupid.  245 on the front and 275/295 on the back would look alot better
