Title: Flat 4 6.5inch wide BRM's..... Post by: leec on November 15, 2008, 13:01:02 pm Does anyone use these?
Do they fit on an early bug (63 short axle) with 205/70 tyres? Lee Title: Re: Flat 4 6.5inch wide BRM's..... Post by: benssp on November 15, 2008, 13:10:30 pm Haydon (H67bug) has 6.5" on the back of his car :)

Not sure if this helps. One pic has stock 5.5 I think, BRMS, the other the wider ones. They seem to fit fine without clearance issues. I run with type 3 rear drums and stock wings.
