TR6 TR6 tire size photos?

[Steve69]

Here's a pic of the wheels on my 6. Please disregard the shabby condition of the car -- look only at the wheels
Anyway, they're MiniLite replicas like you'd get from Moss or TRF -- don't know from where because they came on the car. They're 15x7s running 20mm of offset where stock would be 6mm. Tires are 215-65R15. The only rubbing I get is the front wheel rims on the upper A-arms which could be fixed with a little judicious grinding on the arms. I'm going to sell these wheels, though, and go with Panasports and 205s instead.

Tab,

I have that same wheels (16"X7") on my car, but in silver. I don't race it, but a call to Konig will answer that question.

Hi Brosky,

Where did you get them?

Is you car lowered, and is there any issues that you had with wheel rubbing anywhere?

Thanks

Todd.

Todd,

My car has new stock springs and is not lowered.

I got my wheels, and Falken tires at Discount Tire on line. They were the best price by a few hundred dollars of anyone. Tires came wrapped in paper, with wheels protected by cardboard and individually banded, as well as being mounted and balanced. Two needed to be rebalanced, but that was minor.

No rubbing at all using the zero offset wheel.

One more quick question... do you have a part number for those wheels? I'd like to find the dimensions for them.

Thanks again!

That's great!

Thanks Paul.

Some one should put that info in the wiki.

Gotta love that record keeping Paul!

The BF Goodrich Radial T/As, 215/70, rub up front on my car. The right front is rubbing right at twelve o'clock on the fender flare around tight/bumpy corners, only when the suspension is bottoming out. Around town, or even reasonably twisty roads, no rubbing.

Now--the car was in an accident a long time ago and we couldn't set the camber just right. But if anything, the current setting should have provided more clearance. I just mention this to indicate that my car may not be representative, and a lot of folks have reported this tire does not rub.

Anyhow, I will be taking them off and going with 185 Redlines.

Can anyone share experience with Redlines from Coker or Vintage Tire? Are there other suppliers?

These are Dunlop Signatures P205/70R 15's, stock rims, no rubbing.
Good period look and fills the wheel well nicely

Paul: Those wheels are beautiful and the price sure is a deal! Tell me. Are they alloy? Aluminum? How are they finished? Paint? Powder coat? Any modifications to suspension, wheel hubs or wing sheet metal necessary for fitting?

Thanks,

Frank

Frank,

They are the same alloy Konigs pictured above, but with all silver instead of the dark center spokes.

These are better pictures to show that is is not a pure silver color, but slightly off that tone. And yes, the centers of the wheels are baked on powder coating.
