Hey guys,
well I'm thinking I need to do something for my car traction wise because spinning through gears gets old (and thats with 3.27s and i plan on going to 3.73s this summer). I am thinking about getting a 98 cobra style rim (was going to do a five lug conversion but have to wait untill i graduate in 3 years) with 275/40WR17 Bridgestone Potenza RE750 tires in the rear. I know I'll have issues with the quad shocks, but am trying to figure a way around that. Can I get a specific backspacing and flip the quads/roll my fenders to clear this? I have FMS C springs on it now and dont want to get controll arms since I'm saving for the complete Griggs package.
Any advice for me?
thanks guys.

One last bump.
droptop93 runs ROH ZS's (17x9.5) and 275s in the rear and only flipped the quads. Anyone know the backspacing on these wheels?
