    Well, I finally received my American Racing wheels after 6 weeks (due to special order). They look great but now i have to figure out how much rubber i can stuff in the wheel wells without rubbing.
    Out back, I have 15x8's with 4.5 in. backspacing and in front a set of 15x7's with standard 3.75 in. bs. I was told that the biggest rear tire I would fit was a 275/60 but I don't know how big I can go in front to still have steering clearance lock to lock. I'm doint the 2" drop-spindle disc brake kit and I want sort of the road race look, around a 225/60 or 235/60. Thanks
