This is a follow up thread for (http://356registry.com/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight=) where I was wondering how to achieve a better look.
Here is my new look after
- lowering (and balancing) about 2"
- minimally smaller but wider tires.
I liked the Good Years (apparently inspired by the 59 Carrera GT everybody is talking about recently) - It was good choice for my 4.5 rims: Interesting enough in my case the difference in diameter between the 165/75/15 (before) and these 185/65/15 is only 1/4". The tire is a little wide for the rim which makes it look bubbly - I think it looks good with the rest of the bubbly appearance of the 356 As. It fits perfect under the fender though.
Thx for all your inputs and as always, comments are welcome!
Lowered and the new tires ... finely !

Thx Carl - this thread, though, is 500 or so years old and I don't even know that car anymore. Who's car is that? Man it's ugly - what an awful color for that car !
