I have a 95 Formula, I am getting ready to order some 28" ET Streets. I will be using a 10" Weld Pro-Star with 7.5" Backspacing. I know I will need to use an adjustable panhard rod, but will I have clearance issues and need adjustable LCAs to better clear wheelwell?

Thanks,

Dave

I run a similar combo with no spacers...

-I ground the calipers.
-I had to hammer in part of the inner fenders where the tires will rub
-I deburred and hammered in the front lower part of the inner fender.
-I bent down the bump stop but did not remove it.
-I used a razor and conservatively trimmed the rear bumper cover (try adjustable lca's and perhaps avoid this?)

IMO you need a thumb of clearance all the way around otherwise when the tires grow they will rub.

I'd try to keep the cutting to the rear bumper to a minimum, because if you do too much it's noticeable from the side. Mine is pretty stock looking on the side..

when i first ran 28" tires they rubbed on the front of the wheelwell at 130+. i moved the rearend back quite a bit and cut the rear bumper so i now have plenty of room for a 29-30".

i cut off the travel limiter, cut a little bit of the metal away by where the spring is, and did a bunch of hammering at the front of the wheelwell and all along the inside. i now have 28x14.5 QTPs with 7.5" BS and still have extra room between the inside of the tire and the inner wheelwell all the way around

Thanks for the information, it was about what I expected...just looking for a little confirmation.
