Hi Charles..
I went through this just last week, and ended up with a set of 155/80/13s
for my '77. I was concerned about stories of sizes over 165 rubbing (I
don't know 'bout that - looks like I could have gone at least this size,
but anything over that looks like they'd impead on the rear arches (oh, for
a RWA).
The 80s are nice and tall without being silly, and fill up the wheel wells
nicely. Width looks 'right' on the car too.
Hope this is helpful!
Cheers,
Terry

Subject: Tires....
Hi All! I am finally getting down to the tires on my Midget....which is
good because that means I will be driving it soon. I have started to
look around and will probably get them from Tire Rack. The part I need
help with is the size. It has stock wire wheels and stock suspension. I
am not trying to go crazy with this- I just want a good all around tire.
The one that are on the car are 145/13's. I am guessing 175/ 60 or 70/
13's? Thanks!
