Op you have any pics of what all you had to modify to fit that 5.5 bs wheel on a 3" narrowed rear with that 325 mt? Running a spacer??

No spacers. I cut the bumps tops out completely and used a BFH to even out the inner fender. The narrowed rearend and 5.5" backspace fit just a 1/2" closer inside the fender.

I thought it would pull it in 1" since the backspacing changed from 4.5" to put it in stock location to 5.5 pulling it in 1 inch?

Yes you are correct. 1". I forgot and had to reread what I posted.

I just fit 15x12 , 8.5" backspace weld pro stars on my 94 Camaro with a 1/2" shortened per side S60. Only using a 275 Hoosier right now, but it'll fit a 325/50.

You need to:

Cut out the bump stop area (like the OP did)
Hit the inner tubs with BFH
Offset LCA's
