I am changing to weld draglites this next spring. I curently have ten hole wheels with 275/50/16's. I am looking to run the 60 series next. Now for my question, I have an 88 gt, and I have a slight rubbing on the inner frame with the current bfg's, with the extra inch backspacing that the 15x8 draglights have am I going to rub the fenders?? I think I am, since I have had some centerline warriors before that did(275/60's) I have my fenders rolled, is there anything else I can do to make it so these wont rub?? Or do I have to torch the fenders and move them out?? What is your expirience with this setup?? thanks
Ted

I run 275/60/15 BFG Drag Radials(Track tires, and go have fun on the street tires, not daily driver tires).... I have an 83, and it's a Vert, so there is LESS room for bigger tires on my car, but I had to beat the ****nit out of the inner wheel well and had to roll my fender lip so they do not rub. Pain, but they don't hit anymore.

I run 275/50/15 in 15x8 welds, they hit the lip of the fender a little bit, so mine need to be rolled, but other than that they have no problems.
