A 5" BS would really be ideal for those rear 9.5" wide rear wheels.
The deal I got on the 9.5" was "idealer" .

Its tubbed so maybe one day I'll go wider still with the ideal bs. Its hard to find a super wide 17" street tire these days though. It seems like all of the wide street performance tires are 18" or bigger and all of the wide 17" tires are off-road treads.

What kind of drop did you have on the '81?
