I AM JUST ABOUT TO HIT THE BUY IT NOW BUTTON, I JUST NEED SOME REASSURANCE. IS THE BACKSPACING OK on these?

if you plan to just bolt 'em up and go, i'd say prob. no dude...those rear wheels need 295s minimum and that'll require rolling the fenders and flipping quad shocks. I'm not sure, isn't that a lot of backspacing?

Don't think you're going to have to worry about the width so much with the SN-95's wider track, compared to the Fox. Besides, if worse comes to worse, wheel spacers are idiot proof to make. Buy away!

Why don't you call them. Autumn Fleet Sales. I think their webpage is www.afs.com or afswhels.com . Do a search. Tim Joseph is the owner. Call and ask.

I have seen the 10.5's on Fox Bodies after doing searches. They use the 10.5's from AFS so I am sure they will fit. I have M/T ET Streets on my car right now that measure 26x15x11.5 and with some massaging (ok hammering)to the inner wheelwell, they DO fit with MINOR rubbing on sharp turns. AFS says on their site that they do NOT reccomend this but it has been done and they said all you have to do is massage the wheel well and take off quadshocks. Stuff I already did. I wanted to know if the front wheels will be ok backspacing wise. I wish they had'em in black!
