Alterktion front suspension, wheel size ?
not trying to turn this thread into a brand debate but im curious, anyone know the track width of the Alterkation? I know denny's is around 58 inches if i remember right, I know the GTS from Gerst is 57.75. I know 285s are possible on 18s with the GTS,
mission complete, 285s up front on my Dart
Denny, what tires/rims can be run on yours?
RMS website has these rim sizes posted with the backspace needed not sure if this helps
The following numbers allow approx. 1/4" of clearance between the rim and tie rod end... 14" rim - 3.25" backspace maximum 15" rim - 3.25" backspace maximum 17" rim – 5.75" backspace maximum 18"+ rim – 6”+ backspace Note - a 17" rim clears the tie rod end entirely, however with more than 5.75" backspacing, the rim may hit the tie rod at full lock in either direction. If wider 17" rims are needed, an adjustable stop may be welded to the lower a-arm to limit turning radius. These figures are based on suspension clearance only. There’s no guarantee that a wider 17" rim, or the tires, will clear the frame rails or other parts of the car. Large wheels and tires typically require clearancing in other areas as well, and it is the owner’s responsibility to determine the requirements of his/her particular situation.
