Mopar guys help please.

I was able to fit a Phoenix 10.5x29.5 bias ply slick under my Dart Sport with the Mopar 3/4" offset kit, rolled wheelwell lips and trimmed openings in the front. It was tight, body height and wheeel offset had to be "just right" as well. It occasionally rubbed on the rolled fender lips and the rear portion of the wheel opening. They were on 10" or 11" rims, but I forgot the offset.

I have 30"x9" Hoosier radials on 10" rims now.

Well right now i have a 15x8 weld wheel with a 4.5 BS tires are a Mcreary L-60/15 sticky street tire. Measures 89 Circ and 11.25 SW. I can fit that on the car with lots of room.

Please look at the thread 7/7/14 on Goodyear 4457

Grumpy 427 · 02-11-2015, 10:28 PM

Ok so it looks like a 2790 or 2791 is all that will fit? 28x9 or 28x10

Goodyear 4457 9 x 30 will fit - no sweat even without offset hangers.

We even run them on both our late 60s Valiants that have much smaller
fender wells.

The radials do not grow as much and have a narrower center section( I
Think about 12.5 inches ).

Again 10 inch rim with 5 BS or 8 with 4. You can add another 1/2 inch
BS with the offset Kit ( Move it about .8 despite what Mopar used to claim.

Calvert makes a narrow rear spring which would help(I do not have it)

Ok thank you John.

Grumpy 427 · 02-13-2015, 02:55 AM

I doubt that a 30" tall tire will fit in a duster took the tape out tonight and measured. will stick with a 28" tall tire.

John - do you have the Calvert part number for this narrow spring? Split mono, I assume?

Thanks - Mike.

Sorry to the OP, no hi-jack intended.

No worries. Clean out your in box John please.

I run the M/T 10.5 29.5 on my bracket car with a B body housing with a 5.5 bs with the offset hangers and no wheel tub or lip modifications. It is super tight ( IE it rubs everywhere) but it works.
