Sorry to make ANOTHER tire thread... I did a few searches but couldnt find anything on specifically 13" tires...
Ok, my question is will BFGoodrich Radial T/A 215/50SR13 tires fir on a 13x7 panasport rim?? Has anyone else used tires this wide on a 13" rim?? Also, will i get any rubbing? Or is everything going to be good? Thanks

 

not sure if it will fit or not (it should) but i think 205 if the widdest you can go on the front. i know my 205's are pretty close the the springs. i wouldnt really go any wider

 

hmmm, how close are they to the springs?

 

Like a 1/2" if they were like the Yoko's I ran on my '79.....thank God the sidewalls were stiff as hell......

 

it sounds like im not going to be able to run those tires on my car hasnt anyone ever ran anything bigger then a 205 on a 13"?

 

im running 225/45-13s on 13x8s all around. they dont rub, but they do stick out the sides of the fenders. these are my autox tires too, by the way.

 

I dunno.... from what I can see, they look a bit close to the springs to me...

 

 

well I thought it was a good picture

as long as you have stock backspacing, the width of the wheels doesnt matter. i have like 4 in backspace i think and there's about 1/2 inch clearance from the springs.

 

how do i know if i have good backspacing with a panasport?
