I have in mind a wheel and tire combination for the front of my '68 XR-7. I'm using rim width, backspacing and tire size based on a set of wheels I saw on the front of a '69 XR-7. Does anyone know if they'll fit the front of mine the same way? I'm mostly concerned about whether or not the track widths of both cars are the same, as well as fenderwell clearances. I have no way of borrowing them for a test fit.

Thanks in advance for your input.

That is a good article. I printed it out to use during my search for wheels and tires for my 68.

Greg, go to the links page, thats where I found it, so can't take credit for it, altho I am glad it helped. It was working last night, maybe too many people were accessing it at the same time.
