[Excaliber]

AO32R, the 255X50X16 just BARELY cleared, in fact, did rub a little when pressed hard in the corners. 10" rim. 9.5" rim on front with a 245. Some replicas have more room than others, the Excal had "inner fender" liners. While they look great, the became the limiting factor in tire size.

I think the 17's push the "look" factor to far. Big 16's make it just right for me!

NOTE: When doing "burn outs" in the skid pad area in some pictures I ran various wheel/tire combinations to make the car slide or whatever easier.

The "on the track" pics are indeed the AO32R's. Compomotive 16" bolt on wheels with spinners. I LOVED that as I could easily buy old Ford wheels and bolt them on for various applications. Slicks, baldies, etc.
