Front tires

[1932]

Has someone used 265/35-19 tires on front with front fenders?

After extensive discussions with Dan Ruth, I'm planning to use 245/45-18 tires on the front. (I haven't bough the tires or mounted the fenders yet.) That was the largest size that would fit well under the front fenders - and I'm using Dan's parts which I understand are a little larger than the FFR fiberglass version. If my calculations are correct, my tires will be 26.68" OD, and yours will be 26.30" OD - so you may be OK, but it will be tight.

Did the 245/45-18 front and 305/35-20 tires work all right with the full fenders? the 305/30 are larger than FFR recommended to me.

Sorry, but I still don't have the fenders mounted on the car yet - so I can't say for sure. I did put the wheels / tires on to verify my backspace calculations and everything looked OK. However, I may have to widen the rear fenders a bit. Its going to be close, but I won't know for sure until I align the IRS. Keith
