Front Wheels & Tires.....
« on: February 09, 2013, 01:57:05 PM »
Not sure which sub-forum is best for this question but this one seems like the best option as far as I can tell.

I've tried searching a few times and found a little info, but not quite what I am looking for. What is the tallest skinny front tire that can fit under a Pinto? My research tells me the OEM tire was right around 23.75" tall.

I'm trying to determine if a 26' tall will tuck under with narrowed control arms. Inner fenders can be removed, cut, modified if needed.

Any info would be great!

Thanks.
