    Are you sure? I thought I saw something on their web site about the 5 on 4 inch still being available.

    Biggest Tire In Stock Wheel Well?

    I have a 69 Dart and I used the offset spring hangers and it moved the springs in about 7/8 inch. Rolled the fender lip and got 265/50-15 on 8 inch wheels with 4-1/2 inch back space but they were REAL close to the fender lip. With the springs moved in I found that I could go with a 15X8 wheel...

    Front tire size question

    Go to this site. You can compare sizes on different wheels, etc. I have 215/60-15s on my Dart and kept playing with the backspacing to get them away from the front lower edge of the fender. Finally had wheels custom made (15X7 with 4.5" BS) and now the problem is solved. I think the tires I have...

    Will This Size Fit my 72 Dart Swinger

    I have 265/50-15s on my dart using 8 inch wheels with a 5 inch backspacing. An inch between tire and spring and an inch between tire and fender bead. Spings moved in about 7/8 inch with the offset mounts and hangers.

    will 205/60/15 fit frt of 74 dart without rub?

    All depends on the back spacing of the wheel. A 15X7 with 4-1/4" BS will run a 215/60-15 with no problem but if the BS is only 4" then you have problems.... Ask me how I know. If you go 15X8 the max BS you can go is 4-1/2" and a 215/50-15 works fine. A little smaller diameter (23.9 vs 25") but...

    Adapter?

    I actually have a set of billlet steel adapters that convert from 5 on 4 inch to 5 on 4-1/2 inch. They are about 1 inch thick so it will add that inch to the width of the track. Have had this set for years in my garage. If anyone is interested, let me know.
