I was just given some usable Hoosier Wet Radials in 225/50/16 and 245/45/16 sizes.
I have the following two sets of wheels to mount these tires: Fachs - 16x7 front, 16x8 rear BBS 16x8 front, Compomotive 16x9 rear I have never run Hoosier Wet Radials. They seem to be quite wide for the stated size. Should I mount the Hoosiers on the 16x7/8 or 16x8/9 wheels? My teener is a 1971 914-6 conversion (3.2) with flares at about 2050 lbs. For dry tires I run Toyo RA1 225/50/16 and 245/45/16 on BBS E50 16x8 & 16x9 wheels. Thanks Eddie |
