We put the stock chrome headlights rings on while we're waiting for the other set to be painted to match the body color, coming together rather nicely wouldn't you agree!

175/65's front if you want grip, 145's if you want the look... If you're using drop spindles you'll be stuck with 145's, but I'd check to be sure those would even fit. 205/65 or 205/70 for more rubber rake in the rear.

175/70 front, 195/70 rear.

Slight rake, fat bum, goes around corners well, it's all good!

Or, whatever you like the looks of best.  Wink

Wow guy's ! thanks, a lot of good options... I like the 195/45 I think that would probably look the best, not to big and not to small Smiley
