[quote=NachoRT74]For "stock" look... all 4 corners the same. Easier for everything ( rotation, replacement, emergency, whatever )


I believe you and the others are right. I am wanting to make a fun car, but also want something a little stock appearing on the exterior and too wide of a rear tire might take that away from what I want. If I can think of the best wheel dimeter with that 275/6015 245/255 front, this might be much better setup for the car.

So Cass, your saying that setup will bolt in, or will I need to weld spring perches in a new location? I do have a 1972 Roadrunner I would love to run larger, modern size wheels on.

White in a Mopar is one of my favorite colors and that looks really good on yours.

If you run my offset hanger/shackle kit, you must install the spring perches at 44.75" on center.
