Hey Diederick, I have 145/65 at the front and 195/65 on the back, but I will chance that for 205's

My brothers car getting a total paint job, and a hot engine is comming.
He will also be there @ the 6th with his beetle.

Cheers,
Sander

that's the business  Grin
and paint looks tight indeed!

i was just wondering, changing to 145/80 and 205s would change a lot for the look! what kind of 205s you getting?? my brother still owes me a pair off rear tyres, and i feel tempted though i wanna burn my 165s first  Cool - but that would require a hotter engine  Undecided
plus, i'd have to get my outer ring of the rims repainted as the balancing lead has chipped off my paint...

I will put 205/70 at the back for a classic look.
I have a pair of 145/80 Firestone's, but I like the way it is now.

Narrowed beams are for dorks!   Grin
Quote
In your opinion ::)I run a narrowed beam with dropped spindles and discs, nothing rubs,and it rides nice,it,s not a roofrack,it,s not got neons,and it,s not got a hot water cylinder hanging off the window Grin,(sorry swamp cooler)to me a narrowed beam is something the slammed boys came up with ,that has a useful application on a hot motored fast car,to make fitting good brakes and dropped spindles without having clearance issues, easy...........Some things aren,t worth getting hung up on.

Hello

I looked for pictures of my car but I don't have any pictures on the computer! But it is a oval window, 1957, us specification (with bullet turn signals on the front fenders and coral red color. Wheels are flat 4 BRM's. Currently I am running a new 1600cc with dual kadrons and a berg linkage (I hate the original kadron linkage). I bought my oval window fron Ron at Classic Car Centre Brabant. He imported the car in 1997 from california. In 1998 I could buy the car, because Ron wanted a porsche (I believe). First he wanted the oval window to become a shop car, to put next to his stand on the vw events. The picture I posted is from Nao Fuijta, the guy who works at flat4 in Toyko and is in the DKP club. It is the same model and wheels!! And when I saw this car I knew cal-look was the way to go!! First I wanted to paint the car this color, but coral red is the original color for my car. So that was the color to be!! This weekend I will post the pictures!!

Greetings
