Hey all ~

I was thinking of getting some aftermarket 15 x 6 wheels for
my '59 TR3A. I thought I'd use a stock wheel/tire in the
spare tire cubby to avoid the issues there...

Anyone out there running 6" wheels? If so, what would the
collective wisdom of the list say is the largest tire I could
put on a 15 x 6 wheel that wouldn't cause fender-rubbing
issues?  I suppose I could flare the rear fenders a bit, if
I needed to...

Thanks, all!

Dave
