I have dropped both of my fbodies (1 Z28 and 1 TA)with the eibach prokit. I have 18x9.5 on the Z and have no clearance problems at all. I did not even have to get out the hammer and work on the inner fender. On the TA I had 17x11 on the back and had to use the hammer and roll the fender to avoid tire damage.
