If you go with Stock Spindles you will not have a problem. I was recently told that CPP makes a drop spindle that will clear a 9" rim. But I have not confirmed that yet.

First off, I have been following your Gen II build for a while now. I love the car but hate the fact that you have convinced me that I must have a tiger cage LOL.
As I sit right now Im going with the following:
2'' Drop spindles, CAC bump steer linkage, CAC upper/lower's (Anvil wheel wells if need be)
Front:18x9 5.25/5.5bs 265/35/18
Rear:18x12 5.5bs 335/30/18 57'' flange to flange housing
Opinion?
Thanks for the response
