Well,  the fun is over and a 63.00 Dunlop is toasted  :-(      I fit the 
165/70 13's on the Minilites !! Awesome look and awesome road feel.   Driving 
by myself, everything is fine.  Added a passenger and discovered that the 
right rear wheel is rubbing on the fender lip.  Ruined a brandy new tire.  
New one is on order now,  I have been told that you can "roll" the inner lip 
of the fender up so it will not scrape any more.  Someone said a baseball bat 
can be used.  Seems like a bat is too big and I'll bend out the fender.  
Should I just take a grinder to the fender and remove the inner lip ??  
Someone please make some suggestions so I can get back on the road (minus 
Rostyles and 155's).  Just for info, The springs were replaced with new ones 
from Moss last spring !!!
TIA,
Mike
