Unless you have the full wheel covers (and want to keep them),


I think it's cheaper to go to 14" rims..............

I'm sure there are still people out there who still have 13" rims on their a-body. If I didn't upgrade to slider disc brakes, I'd want to keep my 13" full wheel covers.

I just ordered one of these tires. Thanks for the heads up. Was kind of scratching my head, wondering where I was going to find an extra P185/80/R13 whitewall tire as a spare to accompany the four on my wagon.

Has anyone figured out how to install disc brakes on the front of 13" rims, so I can keep my full wheel covers? The old drum brakes just aren't up to snuff in a squeeze, especially in LA traffic.
