well i've got a problem.  I've got a '67 Sprite with the square wheel arches, 
wire wheels (off a '73 midget), winner's circle panhard rod, moss's 1" 
lowered springs, winner's circle carrera tube shock conversion, and 175/13 
tires.  The problem is that when cornering, the rear tires rub the outside of 
the fenders.  The passenger side is much worse.  It's worn a slight groove in 
the tire, the driver side is just a little shiny.  The thing is, it didn't 
seem to rub when I didn't have the panhard.  (maybe i'm just a little more 
aggressive now that the panhard and springs are different)  I was wondering 
what everone thought I should do.  Is there an easy, cheap (hey, we tight 
here too! i'm in highschool, come on!) or any type of adjustment i can do?  
Thanks a million.  Oh yea seems to me that most prefer the 155 or 153/13 
tires, i know i know, they came on the car and were knew, so don't blame too 
much on me.
THANKS
Matt Smith
'67 Sprite
