What axle ratio choices do you have with the Dolomite? With an RS2 it would be possible to adjust ratio to suit tyre diameter- within reason.

I only run the car with the one ratio at the moment and will talk with Ken on options. I've just looked at another set of tyres that came off the car and they are 175/530-13, another at 145/530-13 and the majority of the old tyres are 185/550-13. The period wet pattern of the Dunlops is quite different to to the current Avons.

I think the normal ratio is around 4.1:1 and there is I believe a 3.9:1 and a 4.5:1 available.
