74, stock 2.0, stock front swaybar - no rear bar, stock front inserts, may mount an older set of adjustable Koni's I already have on the back, either way 100 lb springs, 195/65 Eagle GT's.
Looking to have fun, not too worried about much else, but I have a few basic setup questions: I'm going to chalk the tires, but what pressure should I start at? Full tank, half tank or empty tank? Spare tire in or out? The konis need to be adjusted out of the car - soft, medium or firm (keep in mind I will have to live with it on NH streets too)? Should I overfill the oil a bit? If so how much? What am I missing? Thanks, Scott |

You can put 205s on 5.5" rims.
I have them on my street 914. |

You can put 205s on 5.5" rims. I have them on my street 914. Yup, and they look better in my opinion too. But it's a real tight fit, depending on the type of rim. With the EMPIs on our car, and with the car lowered a bit in the back, I've got about a pinkie's width of room to play with. |
