Bill,

Did you put these tires on the stock wheels on your TR3? I am looking for 
tires for my TR4 project. It has the std. wire wheels etc. Would these tires 
fit without any body modifications to a '63 TR4? If so, what would I do about 
tubes?

I currently run 165/15 XzX's on the TR3 but they cant be found!

Also for the entire list, Does anyone know where Spring is hiding here in the 
North East? About -20F wind chill today, with about 8 inches of crap expected 
tomorrow!

Thanks,

Bob Labuz
