If the wheels are hitting the wheel arch, you can either flare the fenders as seen here.



Or you can cut your wheel arch out and move it forward and then re-weld it in posistion.

That was because we moved the K-member forward 5/8" along with re-angling the lower arms.

I dont normally make it up to Tarpon area.

QA1 with stock arms pushed the tires forward an inch on my 85, went to a tubular and it pulled them back. The adjustable (at least the ones I'm thinking of) will allow you to pull the tires back into the wheel well and I believe to their normal position front to back. We ended up cutting my front valance anyway, but my car was a POS so it didn't matter...

If you don't want to risk the QA1 k-member, why not give the UPR piece a try. They are pretty cheap.
