Hi Jonathan,

This is also a question that that I had. Researching this in the GT40 book by Ronnie Spain, I found the configurations of the 1969 Gulf cars on page 143, which states that front wheels were 10' by 15" and the rears were 12" by 15" for Serbring. For Le Mans they ran 10"by 15" fronts and 14"by 15" rears. I believe the front clip would need to be wider or have flares to run 10" wide rims in the front.

Best regards,

Falcon7
