Re: Working on a 71 swb
Wow, awesome!!!
Can't wait to see what the rear 10 inchers look like.
I'm wondering about clearances, inner and outer (obviously not worried about a problem...) would like to see inner and outer pic's...

What size tires???

Re: Working on a 71 swb
I have the set of 295/65-15's MT ET streets that fit good. (picture #56)
I could still go a little wider though.
Shopping around .
