hey bubba Hey bubba! I can't answer any of your questions, but I will say welcome to the board, and I'm also in Arkansas. I figured I was the only Mav/Com owner in our fine state. Where in Arkansas are you? Jean ******* I'd rather push a Ford than drive a chevy....
Welcome Bubba! There has been a LOT of discussion about this very topic here. Simply use the Search feature and enter the word backspacing. You'll be rewarded with a wealth of information.
howdy neighbor Star City!!! Amazing. Not sure where Ward is, but I'll look it up. I'm in Fordyce. Imagine that! We might have to start having mini-meets around here someday... LOL!!! Welcome aboard. You've found the best place on the internet for conversation and information about Maverick's and Comets. I come here EVERY day and read EVERY new post. I'm addicted. I love these guys. Again, Welcome! Jean
Bubba- As stated, do an archive search on backspacing. Some guys get some pretty wide tires under their cars. I have seen 15X8 with the old L-60 belted tires rub if that gives you any reference. I have a GT myself. Click on my username to go to my website for pics. Got any pics of yours? Seth redcometgt@aol.com
Where is Ward, well I'm right here. Welcome to the board, and there are a few more Ar. people on here. They'll eventually find you or vice versa, great bunch of people on here, and while I'm at it I'll suggest that you check out the MCCI and join it. We just finished our annual nats, look above for a posts about the round up or nats to see what a great time you could be missing out on. I'm from Ky. but my mother and brother are from Paragould, Ar.
