Track is 1410mm (standard Escort I think) and I have 2 x 185 wide tyres, so;

1410 + 185 = 1595mm outside of tyre to outside of tyre.

All from memory.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Jon,

my answer was outside of tyre to outside of other tyre.

Only caveat may be that I may be 100mm out - see Peteffs comments.

My car has Escort MkII live axle.
