  1. Anyone know if 205,75,14's on standard rims will fit( with no issues) on the back of a bus that's been lowered by 1 spline?.

  2. i have 225/70/15's on the back of my stock bay
     
  3. Cheers bungle, my concern is the 1 spline drop, will a tall tyres foul anywhere? I'm currently running empi 5 matchbox wheels with 185,65,15's with such small tyres the gearing is crap and at 55-60 it's screaming. Now I've got some stock wheels I want some height for better gearing.

    Are stock tyres 185,70,14?
     
  4. there is lots of room above my tyres it's the width that's tight

  6. just checked there is 7 inches of clearance above my tyre on stock height

    and your tyres are only 1.8 % taller than stock where as mine are 6.8% taller
