Reply to "Pantera Front Tire Survey - Please Respond"

bosswrenchMember

My older 245-50x 15" Goodyear V-rated front tires are 6X oversized from stock 185-70 x15", but on unaltered 8" Campys. They do NOT rub rolled fender lips. They DO rub in multiple places on both inner fender panels- more so on the left than on the right (many Panteras have slightly asymmetric body/chassis). The car has non-stock coil-overs, no spacers and non-stock front ride height & caster, all of which affect tire-to-body clearance.

The left cowl drain tube needed flattening and the right side wiper shield needed rework for clearance. The extreme front-bottom of the right outer fender lip rubbed, needing light massage. All this only happens in full-lock turns under power such as one sees in autocrossing or open track, with one person & no luggage or tools or other debris aboard.
