    What kind of tires to get?

    if sticking with the same diameter wheel, the calculation is extremely simple... take 225 (225mm) x 55 (.55 ratio) = 123.75 (123.75mm sidewall height)... now we know the height we want... take the 123.75mm and divide by the new width (245mm) and we get... 123.75/245 = 0.505xxxx so we want as...

    brake light problem.....someone please help

    yeah, that apparently was just a coincidence before... because by today it was doing it in either a forward gear or reverse... which confused us even more... but now makes sense... the sparking would happen when the clutch pedal was close to, but not at, the top... it seemed to take about 3-4...
