Mark, there is a link to the picture in Bob Tilton's 3rd post on the 3rd page of this thread that isn't working. It is a great picture of a great looking car, so I was trying to make it show. To make it work I had to copy it. If that is a problem, I will delete it immediately. :)

bob, what size tires do you run?
SmileWavy I would like to know to. I was going to PM Bob to ask, since I am close to buying new street tires and trying to decide between 195/60-15 and 195/65-15.

Vintage911Racer 03-23-2004 12:29 PM

No not a problem, Just wondering who found it. Please feel free to use it on any sites. I just like seing cars that I know posted out of the blue.

bob tilton 03-23-2004 01:37 PM

in re: to tire size, i am running 205/60 on 15. deep 6s with 1" spacers on the rear. however, the PO installed 69-73 flares on all 4 corners. lower than euro specs.

I am running 205/65 15 and I get some rub with sharp turns and bumps. Nothing at speed more of a driveway/entry issue.

Joe check out my site below, and send me some pics and info on your car. FYI it's still a work in progress I need to remove all my personal stuff off the site and make it a 100% 911L dedicated site. Also any L info is appreciated.

OldAutoRadio is working on setting up a 911L registery with me as well.
