[Healeys] Tire Sizes

[Jonas Payne]

It's time to shoe the BJ8 restoration project.

I believe that 165 series tires leave way to much wheel arch on the
BJ8's.

I have installed 185 series tires on customer's cars, but for the life
of me can't recall if they had the 70 spoke wheels (which are 5" wide).

Can you install 185 series tires on 4.5" wide 60 spoke wheels?

Also, does anybody have experience with the K/O mag type sport wheels
from moss?  They are 5.5" wide and I'm concerned about offsets,
clearance and rubbing.
