Title: Chrome Magnum 500 on auction advertized as original GT350 - NOT
Post by: 6s1640 on October 15, 2021, 11:05:25 PM
Hi all,

Don't be tempted.  These chrome Magnum 500's are the Chrysler/Mopar wheel.  The seller is advertising the back spacing to be 3 & 5/8 or 3.625.  The GT350 magnum 500 is closer to 3 & 3/8 or 3.375.  This is a quarter inch difference.  They do have the right markings 795C and the 14X6, but too large of back spacing.  You can also see in the side images, the weld line is slightly closer to the outside of the wheel or slightly left of center in the flat.  Original GT350's Magnums, the weld line is slightly closer to the inside of the wheel or right of center on the flat.

Best regards

Cory

I did send a note to the seller advising him of the error and my image above.  My tach was suggesting that he really doesn't want an unhappy buyer and have to pay the return shipping.  It would cost him plenty. He removed the auction and says he will re-post with the correct info.  Nice, no controversy, no rebellious seller.  Win-Win.

Take care all
