Percy's High Performance Wheelrite - Wheelrite Feels Right
|
To better simulate the vehicle's suspension position on our subject '77 Can Am, a set of 15x8 Snowflake wheels shod with 255/70R15 Goodyear Eagle HR tires were borrowed from Bob Cook. Measurements are taken from the ramp floor of the four-post lift to the centerline of the hub, and to the fender edge closest to the tire (door side) on the passenger side. This is repeated on the driver's side. When weight was applied to the rear end to simulate load, there were 5 inches of clearance from the top of the tire to the top of the wheelwell (29.05-inch tire), and 1 inch of clearance at the narrowest point on the fender lip to the sidewall of the tire and inside to the frame.
