[Mgs] 175/65/14 Tires for MGB???

I run 205x50R15s on my V8.  Both the race and street tires fit with only
having to roll the rear fender lips.  I use polyurethane bushings in the
whole suspension and have never seen any signs of tires rubbing anywhere.
OTOH I have 185x70R14s on the roadster with stock rubber bushings (and
wheels) and they rub the insides of the rear wheel wells.  They only rub
enough to buff the dirt off and only when autocrossing.

FWIW,
James

?If I recall correctly, you can run up to 195-60-14 on an MGB 
?before things start getting tricky. You may need to roll the 
?fenderlips to keep them from rubbing in the back.
