tire size question

[rcmaniac791]

Thanks! The paint is good looking from a far, but far from good looking. The 2nd picture is what it looks like most of the time, pretty dull, and the roof/hood/trunk have the clear-coat starting to come off. After a healthy wash/wax, it looks like the top picture for a little while. I have a repaint in order, going to stick with the gold...

Anyways, the wheels are stock 15x7 wheels for the '84 5th. Not too sure of the backspacing, but these are the wheels that rolled off the assembly line.

I only just now noticed how long the header and bumper fillers are on the 5A... did Chrysler cheat a little bit to get a couple inches of length over the Diplomat? Or am I just imagining that?

It looks good, but why stagger? That's typically done because guys run the widest possible tire in the rear. You've pigeon holed yourself in that you can't rotate the tires now.
