Hey Ned, are you watching this! :lol: :thumbsup:

Hell yes I'm watching this !!!
I check Lateral-g about 12 times a day :)

So far so good.... despite the front collision damage the front end is only about 1/4 off.... thats within factory tolarences, so Chris won't have to tweak it too much to get it dead on...

It looks like the 335's are gonna be tight but fit...right Chris ?.....:D

I'm sure Chris is gonna be a very busy boy for the next couple of months

Ned, That's real good news, indeed...I didn't notice it when we left it up there with Chris, but with that one blasted door, it looks like a "Special Edition Cuda Police Interceptor"...I bet Jake and Elwood would have rather had a Cuda...LOL...

Time for some updates...
Chris has the old wheeltubs out (in pretty much one peice because Mopar stuff is gold on the open market :) ) and some mock up wheels in place.

These are a set of 335-30-18 sitting in the opening.... the trunk pan hasnt been cut yet, so this isnt the final opening...

These are a set of 20's to see how they look. These are NOT the wheels I'll be using....they are 20's off of Chris' daily driver...

I was debating on rear wheel size...... I think the 20's are a good fit....not too big and not too small.... The Cuda is a big ass car.....18's look tiny in the rear.....19's are too small in my opinion too. I just wish I could fine some 335-20's with some more sidewall.....

This a 335-30-18 tire...... TOO SMALL !!!!

Ned, that 20" wheel diameter looks right at home in there!!

Have you looked into some of the 20" tire lines which are intended for the light truck/SUV market, I believe there are some 20" sizes with more sidewall...but might be hard to get the width that you want..

The 20's will look great on the rear of that car...:)

DRJDVM's '69 01-14-2008 01:24 PM

I searched on TireRack for other 335's with 35/40/45 aspect ratios....nothing.

I figured if they dont have them on Tire Rack, then they either dont make them or they are unusual enough that I dont want to buy them and then have issue finding front tires to match or replacements etc
