    Hey guys,
    I know this has been talked about a lot and there are a lot of different threads on this topic but here is my problem I can't find an exact answer I'm looking for I have a 8.8 fox rearend that I'm planing on narrowing welding ends on and shortening I plan on using brakes off of a 94-04 mustang I was planning on narrowing the rear two inches and running 5.5 BS I want the tire to tuck under the lip I don't like it sticking out will this work I don't have mini tub and am using stock locations on all suspension. Any help would be greatly appreciated if this will not work can someone please tell me what I need to do to make the tires sit inside the lip doesn't have to be a lot because I know there isn't much room to begin with. Also I plan on using a 15x10 with a 275 60 tire

    Thanks for all the help

    My advice having done this in a few gbody gm cars is pull the stock rear with the car on stands at ride hight place tire and wheel combo as you desire it to fit and measure for what you need . It's the only way to get exactly what you are looking for.
