These DO say "Dragway Stock" on the sidewall and after zooming in on the pics they are indeed 7.60-15

I stand by my original statement. I was taking into account that they were 15 inch rims inside the Goodyear slicks.

Lee, I don't think John is saying that 15 inch wheels came on the A990...he's stating that they might be the rare 15 inchers that the Mopar guys are looking for...Check his link out and you'll see what he's talking about

Yes, if I were looking at the tires, I'd sure be a lot more motivated if the rims were of the 450 variety or the H variety. All I know is that if I could resell the wheels and come out with free tires, I'd be all over it, especially if I was a Mopar kind of guy. As is, I couldn't identify those wheels by sight, so I was only suggesting that someone that is knowledgeable might want to look closer before passing on the deal.

----Tires alone are worth the money, maybe more.I sold a set 7 or 8 years ago for that much. Wheels could be a very nice bonus......Bill S
