Fantastic weather today........so time to put on some new shoes:

Old 14 x 7's (195/70/14 + 235/60/14 (Now sold)):

New 15 x 7's (205/65/15 + 235/60/15):

Et Fin:

On the slots 235 was the max i could get on the rear.......reality with the steels and the different BS is i could of easily got 245's on, probably even 255's at a push, but that would have been pushing it for a 7" wide rim.

Cant make my mind up with the dog dishes either......on or off....... :-k
Think i prefer on.......... :help:

I could never get more than 235's on my Dart without rolling the arches and ensuring safe clearances on spirited road (not track) driving, even on 7 inch rims.

I prefer it with the Dog Dishes, but then I would. ;)

Glad you are making progress and putting your own stamp on the car.
