1968 Charger BF Goodrich Radial T/A Tire Install - Episode 9

[@808cuda]

Nice! What backspace are you running out back? 5 or 5.5”? And do they rub? TIA

[@68Charger]

808cuda thanks! 5” I had to use a grinder on the inside of quarters because it was rubbing slightly at first. I got heavy duty leaf springs and that fixed the issue all together.

[@808cuda]

Right on! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@bubberrand]

I could just sit and stare/drool at this car for hours. 🤤🤤

[@68Charger]

Thanks!

[@snake_eyes_garage]

Those tires look great. I may get a second set of cop wheels but wish those BFGs weren’t so expensive. It’s a pain but I prefer to get my tires mounted by Discount and then put them on myself.

[@68Charger]

I asked them to not use an impact wrench, the guy working on my car was super careful. They did a great job!

[@thumperkreck]

Who in the world would have 4 floor jacks rather than a standard lift or at least solid jack stands for such a nice car? Defies logic.

[@MaxxVelo]

Beautiful daily bro

[@reapwhatyousow3383]

car looks awesome!! what is the section width of those 295's? it says 12.1 but i imagine thats on an 8" rim and not a 10 like you have

[@68Charger]

Sorry, just saw this. Eyeballed it with a ruler and it’s about 12.5.

[@68Charger]

@@68Charger awesome awesome car

[@moeenzachariah]

What was the specific model of the f/r wheels please? Also what was the wheel offset F/R? Do the front touch anywhere when turning or the rear? please advise.

[@68Charger]

Just replied on anther video with Backspacing. I am running Bassett Racing wheels with BFG Tires. Fronts are 235/60r15 on 15X7 with 3.75" BS and backs are 295/50r15 on 15X10 with 5" BS. Rears rubbed slightly on inner quarters with my Goodyear Eagle Tires and used a grinder to smooth it out. After getting HD Leaf springs it stopped rubbing completely. I have not had any issues with my BFGs.

[@seppo62]

Whats wrong with the old ones ? Plenty of left :D

[@68Charger]

seppo62 they were 12 years old. Nothing wrong with them, just old. I have been driving my car a lot more and taking it on longer trips using highways. Wanted to avoid a blowout.

[@seppo62]

@@68Charger i had first summer with new tire in my motorcycle which had front tyre from 1992. It wasnt even cracked. Just too hard on wet.. You can send those old ones for me 😅😂
