Hi guys

Did abit of a search but couldnt really find what I was looking for.
I can get some Dunlop Racing R 13" tyres but they are 175/60/13 just wondering whether they will clear the radius arms at the back ?
If its been covered before just point me in the right direction...*happy*Cheers

What year is the car? Has it got disc brakes?

Its a early moke with a normal rear subframe and a hydro frame infront which has been converted to a dry rubber cone setup. Hope that helps.

I bet they will. Petter J's Marcos had 185/60-13 on the rear. Was shit to drive, but they did fit.

Surely whether they fit or not will depend on the off set on the rear wheels?

Yeah i was mainly worried about the tyre touching the radius arm mounting bracket.
I did some calcs and some measurements and looks like they will fit fine.
Thanx Guys.
P.S. Ill post some pics when I get them fitted
