SV: Wheel sizes

["Roland Johansson" <scirocco@mail.bip.net>]

I can't speak for other but my 82 (lowered) rubbed a set of
7,5*16 with 205/40 on the back wheels, both against the spring
and the outher fender lip so that was to wide tire. 7*16 would
probobly looked good but I changed to 7*15, first et40 but now
Borbet T with et35 on no rubbing problems anywhere.
