Old member with a new ride.. Plymouth RoadRunner
 

Well I sold my 70 Camaro a few years ago and have gone through a few cars since then, but I recently had the opportunity to buy back my old 1974 Road Runner that i restored back around 2001 so I jumped on it. :thumbsup:

It’s a 1974 Plymouth Road Runner (yes it’s a Road Runner not a Satellite)
It has a 383, 883 4 speed (with pistol grip) and an 8-3/4 rear with 3.91 gears.

I am looking to upgrade the suspension, brakes, and most importantly the wheels and tires..

I know it’s a long shot, but these cars have HUGE wheel wells, does anyone know what width/backspacing and tire will fit back there?

Anyway..here's a few photos of how it sits now (sorry they are not the best.. I'll get some better ones soon)

hi, congrats for your new (old) 74 RR! ;)

the wheel wells of 74's RR are similarly with my 71 RR...
i mounted on my RR 8x19 on the front and 10x20 rear...both with 4.75" backspace. i want to fit my wheels without any mods on body...
with 235/35 ZR19 and 285/30 ZR20...

and this looks like this... ;)

Very nice.. Thank you :thumbsup:

One question..
how much room do you have on the inside between the tire and the springs?

Man are these Mopars growing on me.....is that bad?:D

@blue 70

the room i have on the inside between the tire and the springs (rear) are approximately 1"...

Sounds perfect..

Thanks once again :thumbsup:

I don't think that's a bad thing at all :unibrow:
