Oh man please don't. You seen talented enough to operate a straight edge and a ruler...

I went with the new ones because all the used ones I was coming across in my area were rusted bent garbage. Or the owner of the wheel wanted more than the repo, because you know, numbers matching wheel off a 1 of 3 hemi cuda convertible, yada yada....

Disregard all this.. They fit!

I found a set of 15x6 or 6.5 locally with trim and centers and tires (unknown cond) The wheels themselves look ok.. good enough. But I began questioning whether they would fit, with my main concern being the center bore. So I started doing a little research.. I'm not sure about oem but all of the aftermarket Rallye wheels have a 2.75 center bore, so I assume oem is that as well. The 8.8 hub is 2.79. Since I'm still a bit undecided and torn between Rallyes or the American Racing VN501s.

Anyway, I brought my axle shafts in today and I'm gonna run over to a buddys shop in a bit and have him turn the wheel index down to allow for the 2.75 Rallye center. That way, no matter what direction I go, I'll always be able to run some kinda Mopar wheel, even if it's just a spare. I need to upgrade the front to disc at some point so maybe I'll just grab the Rallyes for now, sock away some cash and do a upgrade and wheels later. But I'd like to get this rear end in and see what kinda backspacing I have.. With the 8.8 being slightly narrower, I don't know what effect that will have. I dont know what the Rallye spacing is...
