Here it is with 245/50 Goodyears on the front, and 255/60 Goodyears on the back:





and here it is with 265/50 T/A's on the front, and 305/50 T/As on the rear:

Yes, that helps. I can't tell a lot of difference in the pictures except the newer 305/50 tires look a little taller and fill the wheel wells more. The difference in section width isn't real apparent from the photos. I'm guessing the FIA fenderwells must have a little more room in them than the 427 car???

Thanks Jeff
