Wheel Choices for 72 Rallye

[Tuk]

Do these Year One 17x9 Rallyes have any clearance issues on the front?
On mine the Steering arm clears 5" but I am concerned about the knuckle boot.
Thank you

17x9 Year One Rally with 72 center cap. 275/40/17 BFG Sport Comp 2.

Great! Thanks all for the feedback, Series 56 wheels it is! Going with:

Rear: 15x10 - 295/50
Front: 15x8 - 245/60

10"s width won't show the full circle reflection on trim which is mostly of the deal on Mopar Rallyes.

I agree the silver ralley's are the best design ever made, of course you can put what ever you want on the car I have chrome magnums on my 73 it looks great the chrome matches the bumpers, I think they stopped the chrome magnums to save cost and have new look, but mostly cost, as they dropped hidden head light grills after 72 for the SE.

Back in 1979 when I bought my first 73 Roadrunner, I hated the Ralley wheels but being a lowly E-2 in the Navy I never had the money to replace them. Now I can't imagine a Roadrunner without them and any car without them just doesn't look right to me.

And 70 Coronets were not really appreciatted and didn't got success on sales because the weird front look, but now... to me is the best looking B body side to side with 2nd gens Chargers

Funny how things change!

Do the original centers fit? Or are these new?

I am told that these are 72 Centers. Not correct on this 69, but they have been on since purchased in 1988. Just seem right. Lots of nice wheel examples in this thread.

Just a few other choices mate ...
slots are ‘period’ and came with my car
Black rock steels are now on ...

I just put the after market 15'' Magnums on my 73, with a 255/70/15 tire

yes, originals fit, but new repros are available when buying those

72 and laters are the same... they are 72 and laters just painted dark argent, like 71 "mexican hats" caps
