I'd like to see pictures showing this size On stock bodied Pantera (mine is a 73L).
Is the gap too big on the 315?
Also, anyone have "matching" front and rear tires in this size? What size are you running on the front?
What fronts (size/brand) are you running if you're running 335/35-17s

Yes, my rear wheels are 17 x 11

If it were me, I would install 235s on an 8 inch wide wheel

My Pantera is lowered. I have Koni shocks with adjustable spring pre-load. The rear is lowered until the lower control arms are set parallel to the ground, the front is lowered to level the car. It sits real low, looks real good, and handles very well.

If you are installing 17" wheels, I suggest you at least remove the spring spacers from the oem shocks, if they are still in place.

I THINK the spacers are still in there...I'll do the tires and then remove spacers to achieve a better look as necessary.
Hi Tom Cat,

That's pretty cool. I live close to Frederick, MD.

As for the wheels, the are Boyd Coddington's Campy repros in 17x11 (rear) and 16x? (front). I have the original magnesium campy's that came with the car and an extra set of 10" wheels - all in excellent condition. I just love the look of the repro's!!!
