|
|
I did a search, but still need clarification if you have a bug like mine. I installed dropped spindles on a stock link pin beam and bolted on a 4.5" wide BRM wheel. The wheel edge is parallel with the fender lip. Looks really wide. I know a narrowed beam is the best choice but, trying to get this thing on the road.
So, anyone have pics of a stock width beam, dropped spindles on a 4.5" wheel with 145s OR 175 65 15 tires?
I'd like to know what it will look like before I drop $ on the tires. Thanks in advance |

Well, I pulled the trigger on tires, and this is what it looks like. A little wide, but not bad. Needs a narrowed beam, but I can live with it for a while.
