Default wheel clearance

Im looking to get some drag radials soon and I do not want to do much suspension work to get them to fit. What is the least amount of suspension mods I would have to do to get 9 inch or 10 inch wide tires to fit?

Proper offsets and roll the fenders. No suspension work needed for a 9.5" wide rim

Suspension has nothing to do with fit. A proper offset on a 9.5" wheel with rolled/cut fenders and maybe a little "adjustment" with a BFH in the inner fender you should be able to slam off the bump stops without rubbing. I wouldn't want to try wider than 9.5" but if you got those in a low-mid 50mm offset you should be good.
