I'm thinking of putting 315/35/17s on 10.5" wheels on the back of my 03 mach 1, does anyone know if it will work or do I have to eliminate the quad shocks? I have seen them on the car but not sure how they did it. My buddy has 315s on his 95 and had to eliminate them but he also has 11" rims. thanks

Only issue you may have, especially with BFGs, is the tire rubbing the exhaust pipe but that's easily fixed by a muffler shop. Other than that, I see no issues.

I plan to lower the car with bbk specific rate springs if that makes a difference. So I'm taking it that there is no quad shock rub? AMMOstang I also see you have a bbk offroad x with 2 camber flows. I have 2 chamber flows and just bought the bbk offroad and havent installed it yet. Whats your opinion on sound and power? I'm thinking of getting rid of it from what I hear about tin can sound. It also seems to have not much back pressure now and I'm worried about losing power and or torque. thanks
