front tire size

wedgie said

The fenders have been installed after "stretching". Tire diameter is practically unlimited now. The rear will now accept 295/50X 15 without any problem. The tire/ wheel combination that you see in the front was the tallest that I could run before the rework.

What have you done in the rear to fit that size tire? What is your rear end width & wheel size/backspacing? I think I could fit a 275/60 15 in the back of my car with the offset spring kit & EXACTLY the right backspacing, but it would be TIGHT. Summit says the 295/50 has a section width of 12.2". I would love to have a tire that wide on my car, but mini tubs are out of the question for me so I think that would be a no-go on my car. Of course, mine's a Plymouth so, there's probably some difference in the wheelwell size on the back. Plus, with the serious work you did on the front fenders, you've probably made a few mods on the back, too.
