Hi guys,
Got some dunlop 300Es for the replica to see if I can get it to brake a bit better but they are jnot white walled!
Q. Also have a set of white wall inserts that I have never used. The rubber ones that fit along side the tyre...
Has anyone used them?
Feedabck good bad?
I have heard ther don't allow the tyre to seat properly and therefore they leak!
Else how much to paint a white ring on them and who does it in Melbourne?
daily driver or weekend show pony?
had the flappers on my daily driver
they never leaked but they did wear
into the side wall of the tyre !........
yep no worries with tyer sealing but if the profile is to low they will get a real beating as they will tap the road when cornering i know
screwed a goodd set before i found out the problem 65-75 series work great
I have the flappers on two cars, no probs.
Flappers or inserts can be a nuisance as mentioned if you've got a lowish profile tyre. No probs on some. Dennis 0414986263 does etched 3/4" whitewalls which are pretty much trouble free. $100 or so. They'd look great on that. Period correct for a 60's car. Go for it!!
Thanks guys,
The tyres are 195/65/15 fittingon the 356 mangels.
I will see how they go ( and carry a pump by the sounds of it!)
