what are the biggest/widest rims i can stuff in my 1990 mustang w/91 front fenders? I don't mind a lil' rubbin' - this setup would only be 4 street/show.
could i fit 19 X 10.5 or 9.5 wide rims in the rear & 19 X 8.5 in the front?

I dont think you could squeeze it under there without having a 4x4 stance.

Mine only does it some times. I've gotten used to it and know when to stop.
