Al,<br />
At the time the photos were taken I had Michelin 175 ZX 15s installed. I had to move both buffer blocks in the boot and I could not fold the original support rod. Steve Thomton’s gas strut worked for the 175’s without any conflict. I now have Michelin XAS 180HR15 tires on the car, but I went with a smaller spare.<br />
