    So far so good on my 60.

    Wiring harness should be here tomorrow. Hopefully in by this weekend.

    I was wondering. What wheel tire combo's people have tried?
    What maximum rear wheel size will fit?
    Back spacing in relation to wheel diameter.
    I am looking at steel rims with baby moons. Probable size will be 16 inch on diameter.
    Much appreciation for responses or pictures of wheel tire combinations.

    Thanks Pete

    socal, i had steel sixteens made at wheel vintiques, they also powder coat the wheel with a large selection of colors. They have a chart you can print and use thats easy to follow to determine the size, backspacing and width that will work for your set up. I have drop spindals with 12" rotors and a 12bolt rear so i had to take my measurments and order them. Not a bad price either and they were quick with delivery.
