<x-flowed>Paul, Good info, but i can tell you exactly why you had rubbing problems with the 2 inch front drop on 145s. the EMPI 8 spokes are a BUG backspaced wheel. The tire was fine, but the wheel sets the track too wide! I have found that most people with 8 spokes are really limited in tire sizes on the type 3. I have run, on a lowered 4 inch front end, 145s, 165s and 195/60/15s on the front of my notch with wheels for the 914 without rub issues. the 3.75 and 4.0 backspacing gave the required clearances. -- Brian--1964 Notch Speedster 2332cc & 1959 Bug http://www.geocities.com/menacefye/ Type 3 Invasion Aug. 17th and 18th http://www.geocities.com/menacefye/invasion.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe </x-flowed>
