Yes, Migge, I need to lower the rear suspension by around an inch to sit right, the bottom picture above shows the racing Yokohama tyre which was a 60 profile.
This is the 205/70 on the front:
And the 215/70 on the rear will look better when I fit the lowering blocks that I received from John Coward:
My final dilemma...keep the nice, new, octagonal nuts, or buy a set of 2-eared spinners...I’m definitely thinking spinners!

Yes...maybe! I measured 1 1/2” difference between height & side gaps, but that was without moving the car to settle it properly!
But at 1 1/2 - 2”, I might hit the exhaust coming into the drive! My blue car is too high for this reason!
