I'm thinking of mini tubbing my 65 coupe but don't really know whats all involved. I would like to get 10 inch wide tires under there but if its going to be more headache than its worth I'll pass.

Also show me the rears of your mini tubs

Sorry i never replied to that last thread....but here are pics of my 26x10x15 Mickey Drags. I ran them for the first time last night and there was not rubbing of any sort. If I remember correctly, the backspacing is something like 3.75" and the rear is not narrowed in anyway.

minitubing is a very involved process as you are almost back halfing the car. You just happen to be putting smaller wheel wells in there
