Re: tire question



I put disk brakes on my '62 Newport and kept my 14" wheels.  It depends on what brakes you put on the car if the rims will clear or not.

The biggest problem with staying with 14” wheels is if you ever want to do a disc brake conversion then you will have to go with 15’s. Plus I believe tire choices are not as plentiful. Good luck

   Hi Mosquito, I live in Connecticut. I'm really trying to keep the car as stock and original as possible, thanks for off though!

Hi , if you live around the tampa area i have a complete rear axle with the large brakes, rebuilt and converted so you do not need the hub puller on my 64 4 door 440. don't know the gearing in the 8 3/4 and it's a open 742. but its all free for labor. brakes have new hub , springs , pads. for tires i went to a 15" x 8 " in back and a 14" x 6" all  junk yard specials. the 14"s won't rub up front if you go with a fast ratio pitman. email me your phone # if your fla and interested.

I switched to 15's and of course my original hubcaps don't work. I just bought some inexpensive steel wheels in 15x7 and 15x8 and got the small dog dish type hubcaps they offered.

Hi

 

I have a 1964 dodge 440 4-door sedan. I'm currently working on the brakes and fuel system. After that I would like to get some new wheels.

I would like to use the wheel covers that came with the car but I would like to get a wider rim/tire. Any advice? My tire guy suggested 14x6 rims but they

don't seem readily available. Any help is appreciated.

 

thanks

 

John
