Since I should be getting my new pair of Stockton Wheel modified 15 x 8 Rally IIs soon, here are some "before" shots of the car...it currently has 15 x 7 Rally II all around, with 225\70R15 on front, 255\70R15 rear. The new rear tire will be 285\70R15. Note the 1.5" gap between frame rail and inner sidewall, and the relocated lower shock mount, to clear the new rims when they get here. Also note tight clearance between outer sidewall to fender skirt...factory fender skirt latches had to removed to prevent rubbing, replaced them with two 1/4" steel linch pins through the wheel lip and skirt, their positions are at roughly 2 and 10 o'clock, viewed from side of car. A little hard to reach with those big tires in the way!
