Keith:
I am running 205/60 X15 tires on my 68 MGB GT V6. I am using the
wire wheel rear end with solid hubs. Minotor/KN 15" minilite repro wheels.
I went with longer studs and about 3/4" of spacers.
There is loads of room if you have the correct offset wheels. I
have in the past taken wheels to a machine shop to have the offset machined
to my spec. With a big lathe it is a pretty easy job. Most alloy wheels
have a center which can be machined to change the offset.
