or the big question, is it "really" worth the time and $ for these to get a 335 rear tire? I hear stories of some people getting lucky and stuffing a 315 under some stock 70-73's, which I could be happy with and save the 2-3K$
any truth to that? rolling the fender lip or bashing in the wheel housing with a BFH is fine w/ me  |
The ride height and tire diameter will really determine how much tire you can fit under it,the wheel lip is not really the problem on 2nd gens, it's the outer wheel well if you get the car low because of the way it rolls back towards the center of the car. I have hotchkis springs on mine with 2" lowering blocks to lower the car a total of 3.5" running 275/40-18 on a 8" wheel w/ 4.75 backspacing and is really tight to the outer wheel well you might get away with a 9" wheel w/5.75 backspacing,because mine still has some room inside. there really isn't any room between the quarter panel and the outer wheel well to gain any tire clearance , if you start wailing with a hammer you will be fixing your quarter panel. The front is an even bigger pain in the arse to get any tire under it if you get the car low!!
