[Nobbc] Looking for Jaguar repair information

[PAUL HARPER]

Would appreciate some helpful help regarding the largest tires that can go on
a '79 MGB.  1) Assume stock wheelwells, 2) assume stock suspension, 3) assume
wheel will be matched to the larger tire size- width, backspacing, etc., 4)
other than stock tires and rims, what are other MGB's using for larger tires?

I think 15 inch unless, as Larry puts it you want to do surgery
on the sheetmetal.
