I'm going to try the 15x10's back there with 6.5" BS. I know it works great on SN95 cars. But they have a little more fender to play with.

The Fox 8.8 axles are .75" narrower then SN95 axles which will put the wheel closer to the inner fender. I know the quad shocks will with out a doubt have to be tossed. Not a problem,.. have a Mac upper and lower kit in a box for the rear anyway.

Problem is which tire size. I'm pretty sure a 275/50/15 will fit with out any issues. The 275/60 makes me nervous. The car has Eibach Sport Line springs on it right now running 17x9 Cobra rims on 245/45 tires. (Rubs like hell up front) The car sits too low for my tastes. I will probably take the springs off the 86 GT and cut them until I get the right ride height and hopefully the tires wont rub or I can beat enough fender out of the way to make it work.

Thanks guys.
