Cooper pass car radials up front & Radial GT's out back. Wheel Vintiques 62 series wheels.
Spindle/spring 3" front drop. ~4" spring rear drop.

Not my first choice size wise but I had to work within the budget presented to me. They work for a stock 305/th350 driver just fine though. The fronts buzz on moderate dips/blips in the tarmac w/the drop. I'll be working on some new front inner wells to remedy that if it sticks around long enough.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
