I’ll bring three cars Saturday for inspection.
I have the correct aluminum wheels, inserts and tires for my Mini Cooper so that I can true the tires.
I intend to run the SRC 914 as delivered with low profile 8.5mm front tires and 9mm rear slicks. Who would run a Monte Carlo race on slicks? The wheels are beautiful so I’m running those wheels and would like to use the tires. I would change all tires to a narrower width like 8mm, as long as they have what I measure as 5mm rib.
The Mustang is an undecorated Pioneer car with nice mag wheels for a Trans Am car, but I am buying CD Design steely wheels appropriate for the ones on the Mustang rally cars according to photos online. It has 8.5mm front and 10mm rear tires with tread pattern, but I will change to 8mm wide front and rear IF that is what we decide. The 8.5mm tires look much more scale like for a rally tire on the Mustangs online. SCC has urethane tires narrow enough for 8mm.
