Tire Clearance I'm running 15x8s with 10"Mickeys,I have to cut w/house in the "corners" on the inside,but I'm putting ladder bar/coilover and if you want tire insde wheel well you may have interferance problems with leaf springs if that is what your running,I have a rearend and chassis shop so they WILL FIT when I"m done,My motto:Enough time and money we can do anything...
Tire Clearance I just happened to be looking at my Mav.up on the chassis bench today,with the housing bump stop bracket cut off,I've got about 3/4 in.clearance at the sidewall on both sides,I'll probably trim a 1/4 in off w/lip and split floor and move wheel house flush with lip on inner frame rail that would give a good inch on both side ,which all the Hot Rods and Tubbed Cars I've built is a minimum amount for a street driven car,when I have room I like an inch and a half.Sighting where my inner side walls are with stock position leaf springs,I'm pretty sure thats going to be your problem area,(other than previously mentioned minor w/house mods in corners of wheelhouse) Good Luck.........I'm in New Castle,about 50 mis.north of Pittsburgh,Thanks Jack
