[QUOTE="dazza1975, post: 539539, member: 17790"] After fitting dropped spindles to our bus, set out to Stanford hall and not even a mile later hit a pothole that bottomed out the bus on the arch and took the tread off my tyres :x so went home and fitted my old steel stocks with 195 x75 x 14 tyres only to find out that on the country lanes and big dips that they bottom out :oops: Question is what tyre size do I need on the front? Fitted with wagenwest dropped spindles on the front, currently stock on rear and kyb gas a just all round. Now the steelies are back on the wife wants to keep these so will be getting rid of the 15" brm's. I have looked through the stance thread and to much to choose from plus don't want to waste money on the wrong size tyres! Was thinking 185 x 80 x 14's on the rear with 175 x 65 x 14's on the front. Will this work or do I have it completely wrong? :shock: [/QUOTE]
