I didn't know which forum to put this issue on and feel somewhat embarrassed to ask this question. The car came with 15 inch wire wheels on which I installed diamond black wide whitewall 205 x 70 x 15 inch tires. Installed new kyb shocks front and rear on my 1956 Crown Victoria. Prior to installing the new shocks, I was able to remove the rear tires with no problem.  After bodywork was done on car, I decided to remove each wheel for a thorough cleaning - body work dust covered everything. Front tires were no problem. When I attempted to remove the rear tires they will not clear the rear fender well where the fender skirts sit and the brake drum. Yes the fender skirts are off. I assume the new stiffer shocks will not allow the tire to drop low enough to clear the fender well. I even tried to deflate the tire some to get it to clear but even that didn't work, so I reinstalled them and cleaned them on the car. So what happens when I get a flat tire? Anybody else had this problem and if so, how did you resolve it? Hopefully in time the shock will loosen up and this issue will go away.
