    165

    Don,
    I switched rims from some old Cragers to Rocket wheels, and the backspace was different. Running 195's on the front and when I cut a tight corner, such as into my driveway, the tire rubs on the fender lip. So I guess the answer is "rims". I thought about mounting a set of 165's on the 15x6 rims, as a solution, but was uncertain as the 165's (continentals) says it will fit on 15x4 to 15x5.5's.
    I raised the adjustable coil-overs to where anything higher would make the stance look just plain silly... raised the rear to keep it looking "right" as well.
