8.75 narrowing in a 72 dart

If you’re looking at 17’s, 18’s or larger a narrowed rear axle may actually be a hindrance.

What would be the hinderance? I have a stock width A-body 8 3/4 under my 71' dart running 18" x 10" wheels with a Right Stuff disk brake kit with mini tub and had to get a custom 6 1/2" back spaced wheel to get them inside the wheel well and it's so close you cant get a finger between the tire and the wheel lip. A 1" to 1 1/2" narrowed axle would have been a better way to go, I just have to be careful on the cloverleafs and traffic circles, straight line is fine.
