Thought I'd share some shots of my new wheels - they're 13x5.5 (or 6) and have 175/60-13's. Front tires rub a bit at full lock on the inside splash guard rubber, and more importantly, the inside lip of the rear rims don't quite clear something on the inside of the wheel arch at top suspension travel. I'll take a closer look at it this weekend, hopefully will only be a couple mm that I can just grind off.
Also finally covered the inside of the roof, haven't had a roof lining since I've owned the car. I used bostik sound deadening sheets, so it's nice and solid feeling and sounding now.
Thought I'd also share the link to the project thread for my car on oldschool.co.nz - Brayden, what do you think of something like this for TAMON? An area where we can post threads dedicated to our rides?

Pics of my new rims
Isuzu Bighorn sold in Australia as Holden Jackaroo - some Bighorns came over as grey imports.

So many delays to getting my MB back in order with 993cc & 5 speed transaxle... neighbor issue gone, donor shell up on rotisserie, new sheds on the way.... another project also..
the prob you have in the rear sounds like what i had, but i had 15's and was much lower, but worth a shot.
my rim was touching the shock bolt at the top, inside the wheelarch on full susp travel. worth a look?
