My challenger is jet black And I want the chrome look so I guess I will have to polish......price is good but you have to buy 4 of the same size, I don't think a 9" wide wheel will work on the front too well?

The wheels that you refer to are not exclusive to Year One. They have been around for awhile. Stockton Wheel sold them, as did Wheel Vintiques. Why buy from Year one? Discount deal? Personally, I'd rather get a set that fit right even if I had to pay a little more. 9" wheels are too wide for the front anyway.

Found the pic....he made mention that tire selections may be limited.

I'm pretty sure these are a new wheel that Year One had made. They also have a Rallye wheel that is different then the ones that were previously available. Someone said they talked a salesman at the Nat's into selling him two of each width. Maybe you should call them up and see.

I would only consider a minimum tire size of 275/45-17 and probably quite a bit taller with an 11" tread width...... I like the idea that they are lightweight cast but dont like the brushed look so good..... I am going to narrow a D60 for my Challenger project so wheel width/backspacing are not too crucial for me, I just need to get my wheels and tires and measure it all up. I guess it looks like I will become an expert on aluminum polishing....... TBF 71 Challenger 528 Hemi project 09 Gr Cherokee 5.7 hemi in da house!!

The valve stem is in a different place and it looks like a brushed aluminum wheel. Mine are polished aluminum. Bought them through Wheel Vintiques about 5 years ago. Still holding together nicely. I have 17x8 all around. 235/55/17 on the front and 255/55/17 on the rear. Family owned 1969 Charger R/T DualQuad 440/727/GVO/3.55s

Just put them on today. I will get better pictures soon. My car was in the garage when Hurricane Sandy hit and put my property underwater for about 6 hours. She was in over 18" of water... so I obviously had a lot to do even though she was thoroughly scrubbed and cleaned as soon as she could. The damage done by Salt Water is nothing short of amazing. I was amazed at how nice these wheels looked on the car. No clearance issues (I have the original stock discs in front, drums in the back).
