If you are gonna use a 195/60 on a 7x15 on a torsion bar BJ Beetle with KG discs, you will need at least a 2.5-3" narrowed beam.

I didnt win the 2 bids on the wheels on ebay.But anyway I wasnt going to run 15x7's up front, they were going on the rear.15x6's would have went on the front.So now I may just go 5-205 eventually and get the BTR's 15x4 up front and 15x7 in rear.They will fit under the fenders but the rears will fit barely under them.There 149.95 w/o the beadlocks, which i dont need those.Also to put 15x7 cookies up front, a 5" narrowed beam is needed
