Wide enough tires??
I just brought home the new tires for the 914. Do you think they will look good on the car??
 Oh, Not the yellow one, They are going on the Chalon.

245s on 8" all round, small momo wheel, no big deal at 5mph or less - maybe in a front-engined car. I was pleasantly surprised.

skyline, I think they would look awsome.. I have 225's front and rear, but if I could justify (only have a 2l) putting bigger tires, meaning if I had more hp, I would!

Here is a rear view, for those that arnt on 914 club.. I have a good amount of clearance, the flares arent "finished" its just something to get me on the road..
 Here is how it currently looks.. Yes I did rattlecan the front end..  and the fronts  I think I'll update my web page soon.. Yes it does look really cool, especially from the rear..
