[Healeys] BJ* Wheels and Tire Sizes?

[Robert Blair]

Hi listers,

Time has arrived to make a wheel and tire size decision.  Choices seem to be
1)  std 4.5 or wider 5.0 inch wheels, and 2) 165 or 185 tires.  As far as I am
aware, 175 are not available in US - are they?

So it is either:  1) 165 on 4.5, 2) 185 on 4.5, 3) 165 on 5.0, 185 on 5.0.

All should work, but which looks best and which works best.  if anyone could
send me a pic their car wheel with these combos it would be appreciated.  I
have pics of the std 165/4.5, but the other 3 combos would be welcome, with
comments on experiences.  I am not looking for the 'fat' look, so I am
interested in the 165/5.0 and 185/5.0 combo if anyone uses that option.

Robert
