Hi Bill,
I have 14 inch Minilites with 205 60 14s. Although they stick a little
further out in the front of my series V because of the wider track, the
tires aren't affected by potholes, even while driving around the NYC area!
A 60 series tire still has plenty of rubber between it and the rim. I'd
imagine if I went with 195s the front tires would look better. I do have
the aluminum spacers mounted on the rear wheels.

>Fello 'Pinies: I read with interest the note from the list participant
who is using 14" Panasports successfully. I live in Pennsylvania, home
of the Liberty Bell, hard working Amish people and pot holes the size of
B-52 bomb craters. Suffice to say, 14" wheel interest me.
What are the pros and cons of this change? I assume I lose a little bit
of speed/gain a touch of high end, and need to recal my speedo. What
else should I know?
All thoughts appreciated, Bill<
