Wheels and tires

[dodges 3]

Hi all. I'm wanting to get rims and rubber, before VanFest, and specifically, I'd like to know the size of "DanVans" front and rear setup. I'm not concerned about wheel brands or styles, as I have a couple choices I'm gonna look at. All are welcome to respond. I'm thinking it will be 15x7 w/245-60's frt., and 15x8.5 w/275-60's rear......Brad

If you are refering to my van, I have 15x8 in frt, 15x10 in rear, tires are 255-60-15 frt and 275-60-15 rear, I have no idea of the back spacing size, sorry. Good luck in your search.

Thanks Dan, thats exactly what I wanted to know. I like the look of those sizes on your van....Brad

Im wrong, I have 245-60-10 in front.

Even better, as that was the size I already decided on. I'm going to have a look today after work, and then I'm going to finish my 1st. round of tune-up. I installed Bosch Platinum plugs, and a new cap and rotor yesterday. Today I have to cut-to-fit my new Accel 8.8 wires, and install Accel Super Stack coil. I tell you, after changing plugs on a 2000 Caravan (3.0l) I loved doing them on my RamVan....Brad

Yessireee. Once you pull the dogbox off you can get to everything. You can work in the rain! Can't do that on a stinky ol' pickemup truck! LOL!!!

Not me! My old 1996 Caravan with the 3.0L was easier. :D The front three up front and the back three on my back looking up with a socket driver and universal. Job only took 20mins. total. ;)

As for my Ram Van, I couldn't get the front tires off to change the front plugs. :VHOT: The previous service garage used an air power driver and those babys are tooooo snug tight. AND, the B2500 has E-I-G-H-T lugs per wheel !!! :WHT:

he-he, life is so fun.

Well, I ordered my new rims and rubber yesterday. I'm getting Eagle Alloys with Cooper Cobra GTs. They are being installed this coming thursday, just in time for VANFEST.....Brad

I can reach my front plugs on my Ram van with a long extention and a universal, so it isn't too bad. My Chevy was much, much worse.
I changed plugs on the Voyager with the 3.0 about the same as stev.
