different front profile tires on 7" front fuchs

I'm running 205/50s.

Can someone show me 205/55/16s on 7" fuch on the fronts.

Drive over...

....car is an 85 Carrera with 205/55-16 on 7" Fuchs on the front....it's only a 2 hour drive, eh? ( Sorry...no pics...looks fairly standard. Think along the lines of a 6"look, but spaced out a bit ...like 1" more on each side).

The fronts are 205/55/16s on 7" Fuchs. The backs are 225/50/16 on 8".




And there's one more picture on my signature.

Can't figure out why one picture won't post. I tried sending 4 times.

Hi Brian

Thanks Brian,

Hey, its a different plate, but is this you at the skidpad last spring at Mosport?

I thought your car looked familiar.

That wasn't me. For the past year my car looked like this.

here are my 205/50s

When I bought them, I figured they provided a balanced look to the 245/16s on the 9" backs....

Now I wonder if it has just ended up creating too much of a gap between the front wheel and the fender
