Yeah that car needs the stripes. My Grandmother use to drive yellow Mopars when I was young so I always associate. yellow cars = elderly drivers :lol:

Yeah definitely go with it. The silver would look so good with a stripe.


Tomorrow is promised to no one.......drive your Charger today.

Hmmm what about the longitudinal strip like on '70's...that would be diffrent

Stripe

I went with the same D-window wheels, but with the black center cap. Black or chrome look good IMO.

What size rims and tires are you running - front and back?

Wheels are 15x8 in back and 15x7 in the front, Cragar brand from Summit. I'm out of town right now, and do not remember the tire size (the rears are wider than the fronts). When I get back next weekend, I'll let you know the tire sizes.

What is the backspace on the rear wheels ?

its normal..4.5" ? I think. only issue I had was I had to shave the calipers on the rear disc brakes.  I got the wheels from Wheels Vintiques. 10" x 15" 'oem' steel wheel I have 2 sets, got drag slicks on the other set.

I like the rear stripe except on the 70 RT. I like the longitudinal stripe on the 70 because I think it enhances the door scoop.  :2thumbs:

My favorite Charger was/is the 70 Six Pack they tested in Cars magazine back in the day. Red with the longitudinal stripe & just mean looking.

We have the stripe on hand - would like to get the rims and tires on first to see how it will look.
