Okay guys...
I have installed glass flares last winter. I now have a set of dials on my '74 and have clearance issues with the front of the tire and TWO areas.. The first is the tire and the front edge of the flare.. I have very little clearence and it changes as the wheel turns (lock to lock) The second is the tire hits the front inside wheel well at full turn???? I have the same problem on both sides and the flares look okay, alignment wise (until the wheels were installed)?? Any Ideas? Will caster affect this? Cheers Kerry |

That SUCKS (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I just bought 4 new tires 225/60/15 from some of the recomendations off the other fourms. These tires have ZERO miles on them!! They measure about 25"+ from the driveway to top of tire. Is there anything I can do about the wheel well? What normaly stops the steering travel? Can I neatly BFH the well? or Is that just stupid?
