I gave it my best shot Carlos! I sent that to him via email right before I posted this. I would of gave you his email, but it sends it through the website to protect the members.....I guess!

I am a member of the www.texasmanxclub.com as well as this one. I have a buddy on that site that has asked someone to see if they could find out what size rims and tires you are using on the front and the back.
Thank you in advance!

He responded to me!

Faron, I have 15 x6" rims up front with 195-50-15 tires and out back I
have
17x8" rims with 245-50-17 tires. The only bad thing about the fronts
wheels
are that they stick outside the body an inch or two due to the front of
the
Manx being narrower than the rear. Aftermarket wheels only come in
certain
offsets and I couldn't get one in the style I wanted to compensate for
the
body. I thought about narrowing the beam, but since everything is
finished
I hate to tear back into the car for something like that. All in all
I
like the way it turned out. Hope this helps.
