[DeTomaso] Tire and wheel sizes

[Brent Stewart]

Ah, actually, funny that you mention that.  In fact, the Pantera is down at Performance Art in Gilroy right now getting corner balanced among other things, and i was about to post a question to the board re: the best source for a new sway bar.

This is what i was considering going with:

Question is, 1" vs 7/8" ?   Suggestions, recommendations?

thanks!

I also have this setup on my Pantera, and like it very much - but with the Tjarda rims i have it seems just a little wide. plus, i get a little push in corners - folks have recommended i go with the 315/35 17's on the rear for my next set on the back, 245 40/17's on the front. Both have a diamater of 25.7 inches...


I think your car is still saddled with the stock dinky 3/4" rear swaybar, no?   If so, then your car will push endlessly.

Investing in the "GTS" 7/8" swaybar will be the single best performance improvement you can make, dollar for dollar.
