I also want to run a 245 or 255/40-18 on an 8" wheel in the front. what backspace will work here? I have coilovers, so I am trying to get the front fairly low, while still being able to turn without rubbing. Thanks for the help. Jonathan
The 295/40 will work on a 10" wheel at 5.75"bs you'll just have to roll the lip. As for the front a 245/40 on an 8" wheel with 4.5"bs works for me, but I have the wilwood dynalite hubs. If you want it low with the coilovers you'll need to modify the inner fenders to tuck the front tires.
