Good point about Front Drum Brake Clearance. Hadn’t considered it. I’ll measure and maybe 17’s are what I should go with... I was thinking I could better re-use tires between the Jeep and the Dodge (if both used 15-inch rims).

Also, would think the wider sidewalls would provide more cushioning (15’s).

A friend bought a ‘73 W200 that had a (dealer added) 440 and manual transmission truck, around 6-months after I bought my ‘74 W200 (factory 360/Manual trans). Always wanted to convert mine to a 440/Manual trans, but more work and expense than I’m up for, at least for now (will just build up the 360 a bit). Thanks for the reply.

Blown340,

Thanks for the photo and reply. Nice to see how your 17’s look.

Your ‘73 looks (better) but similar to my ‘74.

Thanks again,
DC
