[Tigers] 15" Tire Size revisited

[Mike Michels]

I recently tried a 205/50 15 on the front. It interfered with the  valance.
Probably biggest possible is 195/50/15

John -

I have not got my Hoakenson front end on the car but was looking at running
205/50/15's on all corners to make it easy and have 4 of the same sized
tires. 
Some mentioned that it might catch on the corner of the front fender but
have not got even close to see if anything fits. Might be worth tossing a
tire on a rim and seeing if it hits. I have a set of Kumho 205's unmounted
and if you are anywhere near me (Southern California) I can mount one up for
you to see about fitment.

Subject: [Tigers] 15" Tire Size revisited Listers I am finally getting my
TAC'd Tiger back on the road after major underside rust repairs (altho the
TAC sticker was destroyed by the bead blasting). I have new 15" Panasports
wheels. I have also replaced the front suspension with a Hokanson front
suspension.  I would like recommendations on tire sizes that will not
require any modifcations to the fender wells, etc.  I could not find the
thread in the archives that discussed the various sizes but I know it's
there somewhere.  I was thinking of 195/50/15 on the front with
205/50/15 on the rear.  Does this sound right?  ThanksJohn66 MK1A
