[V8] V8 17" Tire Size

[Ron Wainwright]

OH, 35et... the better of the two Boleros offered. The other Bolero rims was/is 40 something ET I think... do you know?

 So you have two sets of BIRA brackets... or you have one set & a set of Rs2 brackets?

 & the Euro A8 rotors you using are 314x28? or the 323x30?

 Have you decided on a tire yet?

 Ron
