A couple of questions, did your friend have to modify the wheelarches to get
these tyres to fit (eg remove the lip). I have 175s with very little clearance
at the back.
Where does the panhard rod attach to, I used to have anti tramp bars, but was
not aware that panhard rods were availible.
Many Thanks
Alan Tong
