  5. Dunno, they're what I know as wide 5, for a pre 67 Bug etc, what I missing? It's Burns night, so I may have had one, or two, for the Bard, you understand?

    One for our Robbie, good call (my Great Great Grandmother was Jean Armour, Robbie's Jean is her 4th Great Aunt) :beer:

    The wheels look similar to the Porsche 356 wheels (I think) which Doug has.

  7. Slainte!

    But the stud spacing, that's not right for a Late Bay, diameter-wise?

  17. Think I will probably try stock height
    I have ordered a double pop top
    So am trying to keep it in garage
    I have 85 inches head height
    Side rail is 70 inches with the pop top 14 inches
    Camper will be 84 inches

  18. Think @77 Westy had stock height covered :thumbsup:

    Whatever you choose, +1 for adequate load rating, lots of choice with the modern fashion for larger cross over/ soft roader cars that need van sized tyres but good all round performance.
