I edited my last post so you can see the pictures between 5" & 5.5" backspacing.

Couple pics of my MWCFAB9 narrowed 3" a side.
Bogart RT wheels.
15x4 front and 15x10 rear.Rear tires are M/T ET Street Radial 325/50/15.
I just like the deep look,the ride is no different than stock width.
GOOD LUCK!

i think stock is 7".5,so you minus the 3" = 4".5......
yes,you can bolt everything back up,if you go more than 4" a side then you can start running in to problems.
someone else please chime in if i am off.....its been a while and my memory aint what it used to be...
now what the hell were we talking about...?
good luck!

MWC Fab 9" Rearend / Narrowed 2.5" per side
Im Running 15x10 Weld Racing RTS Wheel with 5.5" Backspacing.
I had to cut off my bumpstops to gain inside wheel clearance.
Picture... http://www.socalmuscle.net/forum/att...9&d=1330229952
I also had to grind my Rear Calipers to get my 15x10 wheels to fit.
I still need to buy wheel spacers ( 5/16") with Longer wheel studs to kick the wheel out a bit as i am currently running less than 30 % rear brake pads.
New or full brake pads push the brake caliper out to far & they rub on the inside of the Weld wheels.
My Rear wheels tuck in real nice with this set-up.
You should call Eric at Midwest Chassis & Performance.
He can tell you exactly what you need as far as axle length / wheel & tire size.
