[Bricklin] Bricklin Tires Replacement

[Scott Isensee]

The original tires were FR60-15.  That equates to 235/60R15.

Good idea not to trust old tires. I have had some that looked great have belts
separate as they got old. Most articles I have seen on tire life say that 8-10
years is the longest you should keep tires. They can do a lot do damage or
cause an accident when they fail.

I expect the ground clearance is taken from the lowest point under the car.
That's probably the crossmember under the engine.
