    Default Wheel widths?

    We noticed today that the front tires for the series are 3/4" wider than the old FF fronts. GCR says we have to run a 5.5" wheel (Hoosier recommends a 6" wheel). Anyone have any issues with the tire being this much wider than the wheel (issues as in problems with handling, etc. Not issues as in not happy about the width)

    Andy,
    The tire is the same that the VD guys have been using all along. Goodyear even recommends a 6" rim for their 7" front. No Issues.

    Thanks John
    Good to know it will be fine mounting on the relatively skinny wheel.
