Wheel Sizes

[Robert C]

Don / Mickmate. Thanks very much ! That gives me somewhere to start regarding 8" front and 9" rear and backspacing. It's also close to the tire sizes I thought would work with the basic measurements I took off the car. I can take those typical tire diameters and convert to metric 16 & 17" sizes..

If anyone else can contribute to what tires they have on there CR2's it would help to make the correct decision first time. I found a picture when the car was deilvered and the grill opening had a number #259 written on it. I suspect is was kit # 259? The owner did get a manufactures certificate so hopefully in 8-10 weeks he will be driving this thing.

Sorry to you true Ford guys, this car has all aluminum bow-tie 400 CI small block, 10-1 compression, .550" lift hydralic roller cam, phase 6 bow-tie ported heads, alum pan, 750 holley, aprox 550HP. Dual disc clutch, 6 speed T56 overdrive trans, Moser 9" ford, aluminum center section, 3.90 gears. Aluminum radiator. 1 3/4" hand built tuned headers. A Leathal combination.
