Jim's Road Runner

Dunno Jim, I think them Rallye's look the business. That might be because I am so used to seeing them in books on those cars.

Torque Thrust D's have always been a favorite of mine, but I am not sure about those on your car either.

I would say stick with the rallye's, they really look good.

Go HERE, click on 'Applications' at the top then 'Wheels Visualisation'.

There's no '71 Runners, but there is '71 Chargers - close enough for the sake of working out how it'll look.

Thanks James, - but i couldn't find any pictures of the 71 to visualise wheels?

If you select Dodge as the make there's '71 and '73 models (thats the '73 above). Its close enough to get the right impression since the body is similar ... only thing to bear in mind is the square wheelarches might suit some wheels more than others ...

Takes a while to load after each menu selection, but worked for me right off ... ho hum. In the picture I selected 17" rims by the way.

Jim, this is what I have on my RR. Also have the original rallies, but I kind of like the look, it's 15 x 8

I like those wheels Roel. Not bling at all. Very tasty actually.

Thanks Dave, it's the 1st time with all the Mopars I've own that I have fitted non original wheels, and I quite like it

Hello Roel. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that black 'Road Runner' actually a GTX?

If that's the car I think it is, it's an original black 1972 440 GTX, 4 Speed, Dana 60 car. That is so rare.

Looks like Jim has "fixed it" for Christmas to come early for some lucky lad. Previously unknown rarities are great fun to hear about.

Jim, you could always do yours like this.
