I had draglites 15X10 with a 6.5 bs and MT 275.60.15's and I had to use the BFH mod and a 1/4 inch spacer to make them fit without rubbing when I went into a corner.

I thought the SN95s had more clearance than the foxes? I've seen 315's on a stock axle SN95

They do. You can stuff a 325 tire back there and the only issue will be with the quad shocks. If the car is lowered you may have some rubbing on the inside fender well,.. but most of the time 315's on a 10 - 11 inch wheel with a 6.5 BS fit fine.

12inch with a 8.5 inch BS is not gonna work. It will rub like hell. Will need a 2 inch spacer to bring it away from the inner fender well. I dont like running wheel spacers on rear wheels. Asking for problems if you dont use thicker longer studs.

I'm with you on that one. 275/60 is as large as you can stuff back there on a fox and even then you have to roll the outer lip and do the BFH mod to the inner fender well to keep from chewing up the tire. I've seen 315/35 17's on the back of a fox,.. but it was tight and I'm sure some clearancing was done.

Exactly...thats why I'm saying there is NO way they had a 12" wide wheel with 8.5" of backspace on a stock axles Fox

I thought the SN95s had more clearance than the foxes? I've seen 315's on a stock axle SN95
They do...thats why asked if it was a stock axle Fox or mini-tubbed. Because if it fit on a standard axle Fox there is no problems with it fitting on an SN-95

i am having trouble with the brake lines and ebrake cable. I got a spacer for the front (like 1/4) and I still have some rubbage on the caliper. I got longer studs and am working on it. If somebody could post a pic of a ground caliper (the right way) it would be helpful.
