Hello
I see that mancini has this wheel available. Says it's 15" diameter and 1.75" dish. My car is a 1970 dart. Looking for a little more room between me and the wheel. Wondering if switching to a wheel like this would accomplish that? I know an adaptor is needed but someone else said a 2" extension kit is also needed which would make it not worthwhile. Would I really need the 2" extension kit and not just the adaptor?

thanks
Tony

without the extension the wheel is less than 1/4" from the turn signal arm.

Thanks for that info.i didn't realize that. And with the spacer and new wheel I'd likely have no more room between me and the wheel than what I got now?

If you can mount it without a spacer to gain space just bend the turn signal arm near its base.
