I have a chance to get some slicks & rims at a good price but I want to find out for sure if a 28x9x15 slick will fit under a stock foxbody.
Since an '82GT doesn't have quad shocks then I should more room under there.

I hear it will but you have to have 6" back-spacing.I haven't confirmed this yet,but why do you need a 28" slick anyways?

Because I can get a set with only 10 passes on them already mounted on 10 hole rims at a good price.
What's the backspacing on standard 10 LX rims?

Not sure, LX rims are 7" wide so if the depth of the outer rim to the inner rim(front) measures 1"-1.5" inch I would say they will work.If it less or more than that I would be careful because they might rub.

yeah, i would let you try them on, but they arent on the rims as of yet. Since ytou dont have quads, you will have extra room. For specs, as Rick91gt...he knows everything!
