I finally bought some tires (Toyo RA1's) for my 15" Fuchs and put them on the car today. The fronts are 7's and the rears are 8's, which is pretty ambitious for a stock fendered car but it's been done before. (For the last several years I have been running 16x7's all around.)
Despite the significant rolling/pulling of the rear fenders, there is still a little rubbing. I will yank on them some more. They will likely be cut-off for flares sometime soon anyway, so it won't hurt anything.  |
