[DeTomaso] 295-50-15 Avon Tyres

[audionut at hushmail.com]

I'd be down for a group buy, if that makes them cheaper somehow.
But it looks like I might have clearance issues with these Avons on my
8" fronts as they are all 25" tall or bigger.
The only measure I have to go by is the stock Arriva front tire
diameter which is 23.5" so, exceeding that by 1.5" seems dicey.
I actually have never put fresh rubber on my 73L so I'm in the dark
here.  
Does anybody know what we can get away with clearance-wise with 8"
fronts?

assuming that 90% of you have 7"/8" campy wheels and some of you have
8"/10" campy wheels.

The 295/50/15 will mount on an 8" wheel, so let's not beat that dead
horse
around please, it does look better on the 10", but does indeed mount
on an
8".
