well it depends on the rims. what are you using and what back space they are. I'm running a 275/60/15 on 15x5 Welds with 5.5 BS and I had to use the BFH to beat my inner fenders. You may not have to.

A friend of mine put 275/50/15's on his lowered '89 GT and we had to beat the inner wheelwells. But since the car is lowered it rubs if you hit a decent bump.

i had to "negotiate" space with my inner fender when i ran 275s on 17x9s

ive got 15x9s now and am going to squeeze some tires on it.

not sure on the backspacing though. just test fit and go to town with a hammer
