Question 245 60 15 tire on 83 300SD

Anyone running this size tire on an '83 with the 8-slot later rim? I know the original Bundts are much smaller but these may be a bit too much. Any experience appreciated!

79 230 c

Ok, I've mainly been a diesel guy. Half way thinking about a 230C. We had one 280 C 6 cylinder that we liked but it definitely used the gas. Any 230 owners? Anything specific to be aware of?

If so, what year and do you prefer the 430 to the 320? I have seen quite a few available at various prices. Early ones seem to have more issues. Any happy owners?

entire fan assembly - squirrel cage from 123 series '82 300D Turbo

I originally got this to replace the one in my 300SD and found out they are different. I was able to plug it in to verify that it works. I'll take $25 plus exact shipping cost.

First of all, try the Diesel forum since it is an SD. Fuse box is under the hood, drivers side up front. Could be the blower fan which is located under the glove box. Also, try the search function.
