<VV> tires Vol 45, Issue 1

> From: virtualvairs-request at corvair.orgrobert-
if you can put up with reduced ground clearance and
your speedometer being off, 175/70-13 tires are AWESOME!!
they are as common as opinions and buttons. both my spyders
have that tire size now, and it makes an enormous difference 
in handling- so much that i would never consider going back
to a stock corvair tire size.
