Well, I have room for 10 cars inside and have no room. I am selling my 70 belvedere tomorrow and then I can get this beast inside and on my lift and see whatup. That said. here are a few pics of what I bought on satrurday.
rear 275-60 15s.
front 235 6015s and I HOPE THEY FIT!!!!
These are summit legend series.Kind of a TQ knock off. I think they will look good with a black car.

Nope I took those that day.I am in the middle of painting a buddies trailer and doing spring yard work on 2 1/2 acres, major stuff with a tractor.
So I hope by next weekend, to have some room in the shop and get them on and test them. I also want to see if I can get this thing running with a little effort before taking out the 383 and storing it and getting the engine bay in black for the 500 stroker.
I will post them when I have some pics.

RUMBLON-
I'm stumped. Since both you and I are working on 63 Polara Convertibles, I'm so curious to see how your combination fits. Because I think our cars are red headed children in the Chrysler world. I've been working on Moshers cars for some years now (most here know) and pretty much now the standard 15x8 with 4 1/2 inch B.S. works fine. Not on mine. With a stock, tapered bearing axle, I started with a full set of 15 x5.5 steels, sourced from one of my donor A-100's. Mounted with a 215 75R15 tire, it left me with a full thumbswidth. This would be about 1 inch. These rims have 4 inches of backspacing. Now-on my car, no way, no how could a 15x8 with 4 inch B.S. fit!! I call my good friend Bob (Mosher). Why, I ask... "Its those darned tapered axles on the vert, Dale". So- what do you do? Those centersections from the A-100 are to me, THE BOMB!! They are perfectly hub-centric, and will take the stock dogdish hubcap. Exactly what I want. I went out to Custom and Commercial Wheel, after exhausting three different wheel shops looking for a 15" wheel that I could rob the outer ring from. None had the correct size to fit the center from the A-100. Commercial had them, new, and in the 7 inch width. Check the pictures if you can. I set these rims up with 3 3/4" Backspacing, which gave me the 2 1/2" inch clearance to the leaf springs. I'm actually going to bring them back to 3 1/2" inch to get it perfectly centered. So- I "think" that for our cars, that 3 1/2" B.S. is optimal. Please let me know what you find out. I"m shooting for a 255 60R 15 in the rear of my Vert.

How bad would it be to mount a 30x9 on a set of factory 15x7 steelies?
