Here is my latest question on my 15 roadster restore. I have been mounting new tires on the wheels and have the chassis up on jackstands. During installation on one of the rear wheels today I noted that the wheel I was working on moved quite a bit before the opposing wheel began to turn. I realize this is not a very technical way of assessing the situation but can anyone tell me how much play is acceptable or is this normal. I am not talking a lot of delay between the wheels but I probably turn one wheel 3 degrees before the other wheels starts to turn. Thanks in advance for the help. This forum has bailed me out countless times during this restoration.
Don

Don -- If the other wheel begins to turn after only 3 degrees of rotation, your rear end is in better shape than most.
