Default Wheel well clearance with ET Drags

Do I have to bend the inner part of my wheel well lips up to make clearance for 26x10 ET Drags?

I have about 2.5" between the tire and the wheelwell now.

I had that tire on a 15x8 Weld Wheel with a 5.5" b.s. and didnt have any clearance problems at all.

Hmmmm is your car lowered any? I have 15x8 prostars with 5.5"bs with 26x10 et drags. Haven't put them on yet but I was hoping it would clear becuase the et streets did. Are you running spacers?

My car is lowered about 1.5~2" and I still have about 2" of clearance. Hope that's enough <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />
