Early A, 9”……if it was yours, take $ out of the equation, whats the best solution for brakes
If you want some comparison photos, here is my 66 with three different sets of wheels/tires.
First up is the 13" red (?) rims that were on it when it came home with me. Tires were very small, like 185's or so.
Next is the tan rims, 14" with 205's on the front and 245's on the rear.
Last is the black rims, 15" and what is currently on the car. 215/65 front, 245/60 on the back.
The 13's were just WAY too small, in my opinion. The 14's were much better, but I really like the way the 15's fill in the wheel wells. They will be staying on the car.
These are all SBP so I have a set of Kelsey Hayes front discs standing by with an 8.75, same bolt pattern.
If you're looking for the most flexibility, I'd go with the majority opinions above, 73+ front discs and an 8.25. Both are economical and easy upgrades.
