Default RE: Retro Wheels

The 17-inch Cragars are exactly what I'm going for. Some time ago, I contacted one of the places that sell 17-inch Mopar Rallye-style wheels to see if they'll fit on the new Challenger. The rather confusing note I received (which is on the forum somewhere) in response basically seemed to say that yes, the wheels will fit but no, they don't. Apparently, Dodge now uses a metric measuring method for wheel lugs and the Rallye wheels are English system. Hence, the wheels can be mounted, but they apparently don't fit perfectly. That's when I went looking at other options and discovered the Cragars. The ones I want are listed on the Cragar web site as model No. 612 (basically the same as the original Cragar 61s, but the 612s are available in 17- and 18-inch sizes).
