15x5 front wheel - pics?
« on: January 18, 2007, 08:50:38 AM »

Anyone got any pics of 5" wide front wheels on an A body? What tires are you running and what backspacing?

I just got a pair of Weld Pro Stars  5" x 15" , ( no pics) but after looking around at other darts ,  The 5s are not as close to the outer fender lip as is the narrower rim sizes such as a 3 1/2" or 4".  Check your backspacing !

Here are my 15X5's.  Same as you only Draglites.  I just pulled them off and put on some 3.5" skinny's though.
Oh yeah, I know the front bumper is incorrect.

Hey W2-408,

What is your wheel size and back space on the rears?

Thanks

The rears are 15X8 with 4.5" backspacing.  Thats about to change in a few weeks, when they will become 15X10's.
