Is there a preferred spray primer or
whatever to put on for protection?
I recommend PPG DP (or equal) epoxy primer. This is a non-sanding primer
that will also provide rust protection. Other primers are intentionally
porous and will promote rust if not top coated immediately. When you come
back to the epoxy primed surfaces later you must scuff the surface in
preparation for filler or paint.
What's a good size tire for front that
both looks good and will help in the 'arm strong'
power steering area?
Stock front ends like stock wheels and tires the best!
