I've done a search but couldn't find any info on what years of Dodge spares you guys are using, and what vehicles had them. Spent a few hours in the local pull-a-part the other day looking for other stuff, and didn't find any that looked like these. I've got the drop beams on the front of my '70, and am wondering if these rum in the fenders or not.
Mine do not come even close to rubbing in the front. In the back I am running a 285/50/20 which is a big tire. I had to use a 1.5 inch billet spacer to get the wheel centered in the wheel-well. Otherwise, it would rub on the innermost part of the wheel-well. No rubbing anywhere.

Yeah, there hasn't been too many responses with other wheels; a few. I am just trying to answer peoples questions to help them out.

That is pretty upsetting I've been on ebay for a couple of months and haven't seen them being sold even individually. Still keeping my eyes open. I saw some on there last year for $200. Good find.

These are the guys I got mine from. They are in Fort Worth and you might give them a call. I bought 5 for $190, they needed a sand blast but I powdercoated them so that did not matter. Drove up, paid, loaded in the civic and came home. 1 tank of gas saved $$ on shipping. Since you are in Oklahoma City they are a few hours south.

Before I put the drag radials on the rear, it would break the tires loose and drift sideways if I mashed the gas at 45 mph. I would have to lift or it would go all the way around. It would bark the tires and and get loose going into 3rd at 80 mph. It's plenty fast for me.
