Wheels on the Plymouth Road Runner: what actually works
The Road Runner wheel scene celebrates honest, function-first muscle. Restoration builds run the correct steel wheels with dog-dish hubcaps, or 15-inch Rallye wheels, with fat rear tyres — the budget-muscle look the car was born with. Pro-street builds run Weld drag wheels with skinnies up front and wide rears for the strip, while Pro-Touring builds run staggered forged sets over a modern chassis. The plain B-body takes either honestly, and the Mopar 5x4.5 pattern with a deep aftermarket keeps the options open — the render shows the steel-wheel-versus-forged direction on your own car.
