People wondered how Moff ran bigger rubber on the back of his coupes than anyone else. Apparently he pumped up the petrol tank untill they popped which narrowed the tank & then used a combination of the genuine inner rear guard panels swapped left front halve to right rear & vice versa, which gave him a mini tubbed rear area & didnt break the rules as no metal had been cut or added & used genuine parts.

Probably the same way in which Bathurst winning Commodores ran wider rubber than other Commodore teams who found it impossible to fit the same size rubber under the guards.
Fred Gibson, in recent interviews, has been very open on the fact that the Nissan Bluebirds were less than legal.
