RE: {Chrysler 300} Max Wheel Size

Thanks Keith and George.

What tires are you using?

I am tired of chasing the hub caps. I may get a set of 15x7 something with a 4 inch backspace and call it a day as far as wheels go. The brand new 14-inch steel wheels on the car are fine, I am just not interested in restoring a set of factory hubcaps just to see them spit off.

My folks ’64 300K used to lose a cap every now and then when new as well. So, I know it is a long term issues when the cars are driven daily or with sprit.

I have 15x7” Dodge “Police Wheels” on our 300K without any issues. I did try 15x8” wheels on our ‘65 B Body and the outer perimeter would rub on the suspension in the front (no issues on rear fitment.) I don’t know if the same issue would occur on a C Body.

What is the maximum wheel (rim) width people have had on a 1963 – 1964 Body without any clearance issues?

Assume a 15 inch dia.

Thanks, James
