Keep in mind that even if you narrow the LCA mount on the housing, the LCA itself is still as far as it will go to the inside. The only place you gain clearance is the LCA bolt to wheel clearance.
I have 3 inch per side narrow, 325/50 tire, small tubular LCA/s offset all the way to the inside. 15x10 wheels with 5 inches of backspacing. My tire is 3/4 of an inch from my LCA.
The only thing that changes with narrowing MORE than 3 inches per side is wheel backspacing. The tire has to sit where mine is unless you fully tub the car. Mine is minitubbed.

I can tell you in about a week after the housing is here, but it should be about an inch or so away!
when people say a 315/60/15 is a big tire, its no joke
my houseing will have the lca bracket narrowed up, with an offset bushing on the front(car side)...anouther trick is to move the lca on the car side to the inside backet

I'm narrowed 4", offset LCAs with a 15x10x5BS and 315 and its really really close to the LCA
Honestly I think it is dumb to not be able to move the brackets inboard for tire clearance in stock suspension classes.
