updated pics of rear tire clearance. I went in 3 rounds on the LCA's on both sides. Let me know if this looks better. I am assuming since I went in both sides equally the alignment numbers should not of changed. Correct??
Here is the right side of the car.

Don't bother setting up your LCA to keep the tire even in the wheelwell. Set it up so that you have your drive wheels square to your front wheels. With these cars the body isn't always square, so if you are adjusting it based on the wheelwell you might end up with a rear that dogtracks. Just measure center cap to center cap and that should get you pointed in the right direction.

You have plenty of clearance now. I would check the inside wheel well to see if you have clearance there though. With a spool, the tire has a tendency to wad up and rub while turning sharp. You don't want to slice a new set of tires.
If you don't square up the rear, you'll know it the first time the front tires come off the ground at the hit.

Looks a little close but it should be ok.....
One thing to also remember is the tire growth will also be affected by your trap MPH so what might clear fine at 100 mph might not be so great at 130 MPH....
