Default Wheel & Tyre options

There has been a lot of talk in numerous threads about what wheel and tyre combinations people are going for, so it seemed sensible to extract it out into a separate thread for ease of reference

I suppose i should kick off....

I have tried MGC wire wheels (5.5 x 15) with std MGC tyres fitted (165 SR 15) but i had issues where they hit the bulkhead.

I recessed my bulkheads but i was still getting some scrub at the end of each lock so i've now decided to go for either 175 65 15's or 165 65 15's, still on 5.5 x 15 wire wheels.
Once i've decided, these should be bought and tested in the next few days, so fingers crossed that they solve my clearance issues!

Edit: i ended up with 165 65 15's, although i'm tempted to put 175's on the back next time.
