What is the best size that will fit the rim and car and give a good look?  Loads of opinions on here. It seems like 205/70 is what I am finding . I currently have 205/70 on my stock steel wheels, but theu look dumb because the wheel is...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[So the fenders were junk on my 72’, and I was able to source a pair of real nice 73’ fenders cheap. I was aware of the 73’ fenders needed to be notched for the 72’ bumper so I marked them out based on the dimensions of the original fenders. Problem is I left them out in the weather too long and my marks are gone, as are the original fenders. I did a search and while there is info, I couldn’t see any posts with the notch dimensions. Can anyone help with those dimensions?]]></content:encoded>
