Dan,
The wheels on the car are 15" X 8" in the front and 15" X 10" in the back.  The tires are 255/60/15 in the front and 295/50/15 in the back.

You guys are doing a great job with these cars. As time goes on,i like the way you revised the side vents. I love the street version but,, the oil cooler and oil cooler scoop aren't street.The area between the front bumpers,below the air intake area for the radiator should more or less flow evenly with the rest of the front (instead of having the bulge area where the oil cooler scoop sits).Other than that,,this sucker looks like it is fresh off the boat from AC in the UK  
In time will this be eliminated? Or is it gonna stay as it is?  Thanks

Thanks for the nice comments on the street version.  We spent a lot of time researching the street version and many of the original 427 street cars did have the oil cooler.

Some original street 427's did come with an oil cooler scoop and some did not. I haven't been able to find out why some did and some didn't though. It may have to do with which series of chassis numbers but I don't know for sure.
Here's CSX 3111, which is an original street car and has an oil cooler.

I wonder if the 31XX series cars had them because originally, Shelby intended them to be comp cars? I'm not sure.
Ron on CC may know for sure. He's my source for info that I don't know.
