    Panasports, anyone??

    Years back I had Halibrants for my Signet complete with Knock offs which I wanted to use until a friend offered me 3000 for them and the rest is history. I really like the Minilite style wheels except for the fact that there isn't any great centerpiece which could bring it all together and so my...

    I need an Wheel/Tire education..quick

    the 14" rims on my Signet are of police car variety. Tire sizes are 205/70 in front and 245/60 in rear. Both are very close to being the same height yet the front tires do not hit because they are narrower than the rear tires. This is the look and the feel I've had on this vehicle for almost 30...

    A big thank you to FABO Moderator ( 6pk2goDemon ) who helped me out when I was starting to go ballistic as he pulled me from the fiery gates of hell And thank you Joe for the chart as I love charts and facts... Yet I still need to know what's gonna fit the stock wheel well with stock...

    Need 15 -16-17 or 18's

    My Signet needs an updated look and for the likes of my I cannot figure out not which wheels and tires I want to use, but which wheels and tires will fit. For the past 25 or so years, it's used 14" 5 on 4.5 - 7" wide steel wheels and as you know, tires are hard to come by except for BFG T/A and...

    Goodrich tells me to call Coker

    my Signet runs 205/70 14 Coopers in front and 245/60 14 out back on T/A's, the stance is awesome and the tires appear to be the same height, however the traction with the T/A's is non-existent

    Please learn from my mistake: mustang wheels

    There has been more than an abundance of information on which Mustang Wheels have the correct BS here on FABO, going through the archives could have helped you and you wouldn't have had this problem... Sorry, I don't like holding people's hands

    17's on a 1962 Valiant Wagon

    17's aren't big wheels Dan, they are the beginning of an era where 14 and 15 inch tires are either hard to find, hard to get or hard on your pockets. I could understand your feeling towards 20 or 22 inch wheels yet not as an update to your vehicle where another person finds its easier to replace...

    tires for my new 15x4 rims

    25" is the standard so 26 and 27 inch high tires will effect the rear end gear and raise the ratio which is lowering the number. What gears will you be running and which transmission, these will help you decide what exactly your speed will be at what RPM. I know I don't explain everything...

    WTB: 255/14 tires

    I just bought 2, 245-60-14 BFG T/A radials for my Signet at the cost of $240 delivered to my door from Tire Rack on the Internet. I'm just sick and tired of the prices in tire stores where its more reasonable this way. The problem with used tires are that most states have a liability law which...

    15" wheel question

    Will 15" wheels with a 3 1/2" backspace fit on my 1964 Signet without modifications? It also has 73 Duster front discs and an 8.75 rear. I've had 14's on it for over 25 years with 245/60's on the rear and 205/ 70's on the front. My head is so spaced these days that I almost cannot think for...

    Which color Bullitt wheels would look best?

    I actually sold the 17" Bullit anthracite wheels w/ Pirelli Net zeros I had for my Black Signet just tonight, Got 450 for them and will be using the True Spoke wheels they used on the 50's Chrysler like these only less chrome and modified a bit.

    Sleeper car , what wheels !!! pics**

    I once had a faded blue paint, rusted out 66 Valiant 2 door with a ragged interior and a roller cam 340, 4 speed, 4:88 rear sure grip that made a believer out of almost whatever it came in contact with. Eventually the left front frame rail broke and it fun while it lasted :)

    Anybody running 17" Cobra Bullit rims on a Duster

    You cannot imagine how much I dislike how manufacturers of American vehicles throw around every number in millimeters as if all of the Americans have thrown away our rulers in favor of the metric system. For crying out loud my friggin engine is 358 cubic inches and the 8.75 inch rear was built...

    Anybody running 17" Cobra Bullit rims on a Duster

    I was told here some time back that the 05 wheels have a backspace of 45mm which is 6.29 inches and the 96 to 04 wheels have a backspace of 36mm or 5.72 inches and would not fit on my 64 Signet without major help and every time I see this post I drive myself crazy so on the rear of the wheel on...

    Anybody running 17" Cobra Bullit rims on a Duster

    player1up, what are the backspacing on your 05 Wheels? I thought that the backspacing was 45mm on the 05 and they wouldn't work so I was told.

    Powdercoat or paint?

    Powdercoating is great and even though it has been around for many decades the EPA had the public sector of the industry change its formula so to speak. Powdercoating is now polyester and has been for around fifteen years. I had my grill done 30 years ago and still looks new and nothing sticks...
