2 questions-
When I flare my car, I'm going from a 2.0 alloy 5.5x15 with 205x60x15 tires. I would like to keep the tire diameter the same on a 7x15 wheel and 225 tire. Would I use 50, 55 or 60 series tires? I think a 7 inch wheel and 225 tire might still have too much space between the tire and inside of the flare. Is there a spacer made that will fit a 4 lug wheel? I have read that the 4 lug hub takes a special lip on the wheel. Thanks, Mark |
