Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're

They are the Bassett lightweight racing D-hole rims.  15"x7" on the front and 15"x10" on the rear.  Tires are 245x60x15" on the front and 275x60x15" on the rear.
The rim sizes fit perfectly.
15"x7" backspacing 3.625"
15"x10" backspacing 5"

I was just going to say they look like Bassetts: http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,52194.0.html

Have you got any close pics from the side rear so we can see the clearance by the wheel opening? They look great.

Those wheel/tire combos look fantastic on your Charger !  Both actually look great but the new combo really "pops" with the color of your car !! :cheers: :cheers:

WOW!!!  The previous rims looked okay, but they were too plain.  The black rims with the small bit of redline on the rim and the raised white letters are fantastic.  A very nice improvement.

I think those wheels look really good. The red pinstripe is really sweet.  :drool5:

However, I really like the Cragers on your other Charger. Man, now I know what I want my garage to look like.  :yesnod: :2thumbs:

Not really exhaust dumps - exhaust coming straight off of exhaust manifolds with short pipes and no mufflers - just a temporary fix until we can get the full exhaust put on.  Looking to go with the TTI exhaust set up.  Until then, the neighbors are probably hating it!
