4000q max tire size 17''

[JShadzi at aol.com]

Todd, let me know what you find, my bet is that they rub, I've been contemplating fitting that size to my 80, but I'm really sure it will rub.  Tires have amazing way of rubbing once you get the car bouncing around and loaded on its suspension, I'll be very interested to see your results.
