I love those! Natural or polished?

Natural with polished lip. It took me a while to find what I wanted. I went to one of my customers to buy them and he could not get them. He talked me into buying them on line. I would have rather bought from him, but he is getting me the tires.

I like the look and the style is period correct for early 60's Mopars. Good choice! Best thing I did for my 66.

Lookin' good.

Using the tire size calculator, I should drop 600 RPM at 70 mph

Those don't look like the ones from your original post.

On post #20 I said I had found a winner with these. I really liked the ones in post #1 except the holes did not match the cut outs

They look fantastic!

New wheels and tires and a 2 degree pinion shim. Drives like a dream. I dropped 6-700 RPM at 70 MPH. I have always had an annoying vibration at 50 and above. I have never really taken the time to search for it. It has been such a crappy spring I decided new tires, time to find vibration. Drive shaft angle was first thing I checked. Trans pointing down pinion pointing up. Added 2 degrees down to the pinion and she is smooth all the way to 90 MPH. One of these evenings I plan on installing a front sway bar
