how much actual cutting will be needed in that corner inner fender well? any rubbing issues?

I've already done extensive clearancing for the 28x10.5 standard which clears fine,but looks like sidewall clearance is the only issue on that front corner..thanks in advance

Joe, I've seen a few 4th Gens at the tracks running 10.5w's. They all had cut out the inner corners pretty much all the way out. I talked to a few and most of them said they rubbed a little still on tight turns but were ok in a straight line.

thanks y2k for the info..looks like one of them things where I clearance and if in doubt clearance some more..did any of those guys give any indication how much room lets say 1/2" for ex.between the tire and well, they were geting away with ?

Hey joe...

I run the M/T drag 28x10.5Wx15

It def. took some "massaging" of the wheel wells to make them fit.

We cut some metal off each bottom corner and wrapped the poly around. Along With some "Gentle" massaging (15#sledge hammer) to the inner well.

But they are def. worth the effort...

I haven't had anything worse than a 1.40 since I started using em'

I ran these also. W's grow more then regular slicks do. They grow about 1.5" I just took these off today and put some 29.5 x 10.5" slicks. These things are huge, tire height is 29.9"!

Anyone have pictures of what it looks like when you massage the wheel well. Possibly just showing without the tire and then with.
