Early picture during an autocross, probably in late 1970's.

Note race tires, and roof rack used to carry 4 wheels with race tires to the autocross track.
Wheels used with race tires were 8" on the front and 9" on the rear.                                    
            Tires were carried on the roof to autocrosses as far away as Toronto Canada and Atlanta Georgia.
