Is anyone running a P295/50R15 tire on the rear of a 3rd generation Charger?  If so, got any pics?  I would like to see how these look.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
      a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
      acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

Thanks guys.  I currently have 81/2 inch Centerline rims on the rear but I was thinking of going with a 10 inch rim.  I have 10 inch American Racing rims that my slicks are mounted on and I have plenty of room.  uud looz what size are your front tires?  Also are those 10 inch rims on the rear then?

Ok here is my question.  I wonder how tall the 295/50/15 will be on an 81/2 inch rim?  Also, I have 225/70/15's up front mounted on 7 inch rims.

if you're talking about 15 inch rims, the 295 would be 26.67" and the 225 is 27.4"

If you mean to ask if the tire height (diameter) changes depending on rim width, it doesn't - at least not enough to make any appreciable difference.  I believe that is determined by the steel belts and doesn't change.

Thanks guys.  I guess I didn't want a taller front than rear tire but that amount shouldn't be to noticeable I wouldn't think.
